According to a RealtyTrac analysis, 6.6% of all single-family and condo sales in the first quarter of 2016 were flips. That’s up 20% from the previous quarter and 3% year over year. And the number of flippers grew by 8% from the first quarter of 2015. But a lot could go wrong if your new to the game.

Heritage can handle all phases from finding the deals out there to bringing the job to Fruition and making the profit you hoped for. The TV shows make it look easy but anyone who has ever tried it knows its a lot harder than it seems. Heritage can give you an accurate picture of the flipping opportunity.
