Start By Searching The MLS in Minnesota

Flipping a property is simply the practice of selling it as soon as you buy it, often at the same closing. At the very latest, flippers tend to begin the selling process the day of the sale. Some even begin before they own the property, which is very risky business. However one goes about doing it, flipping always entails a mad rush to the auction block because an empty property is always a liability.

Ask yourself - “what area am I interested in”? Are you going to invest in the city where you live? If not, what part of the country are you interested in? The Internet is your best research for determining what area of the country you would like to put your time and resources into. Start by searching the MLS in Minnesota for potential properties to buy. Ken McElroy, author of “The ABCs of Real Estate Investing,” calls this Level I research. Later, once you have decided on a part of the country and a city in which to look, you will need to decide what neighborhood interests you. You will discover that during McElroy’s Level II and Level III research.
