So I'm not really business smart or know anything special but I've witnessed disputes in my family over house purchases that ruined everything. My friend Tom quit his job and wants to start a business flipping houses... He's currently living in a house owned by his mom and her siblings by only paying the property taxes. So now combined with the money he's saved he wants extra capital to start his business. Mind you he is relatively skillful in small matters what it comes to repairing homes but nothing special like HVAC, ELECTRICITY, PLUMBING only entry level stuff... Anyways he wants to fix up the house he's currently living in, give his family a price that they'll get for it and he receives any extra money over that price when it's sold with no plans of paying it back. He's giving them the price of 280-300k and house is currently evaluated at 370k on zillow and apparently appraised at 320k without repairs I'm assuming. cont--

>>29380621
Is it just me or is he out his god damn mind? he is estimating 20-25k in repairs when he only plans to do very standard fixing up before sell stuff, hiring some for roof and then doing flooring, paint hiring someone to fix complicated stuff like water heater and bringing electric up to code but other then that the house's foundation and plumbing is good. Even if it was 20-25k he's planning to get another extra 20-50k for free basically... not to mention I feel like his plan is kind of insane with no real professional knowledge in the field of flipping houses it's going to take hard gruesome laborous work that he and his friend will have to do and it's all hedging on the assumption that the housing market won't completely crash. The first house they try and flip may become worthless in the next 3 years easily with covid.

That's what I mean I like this guy, he's funny overall pretty good dude but I think he's absolutely insane for this being his plan and on top of it I've tried to warn him about the distrubances between houses and rifts that can happen in families because I've experienced my self but it just doesn't matter to him. He could probably return to his previous job he just was getting mad and fed up at it and I get the want to be independent and retire early but why the fuck to 20-30 year olds expect this right now? Even off the back of their family... Yes everyone is in debt nobody could buy a house but the same way boomers think you can just walk into any job with a suit, get hired and support a family millennials just assume that they should own a house without considering that the reason they can't is because boomers are wrong and it is hard for EVERYONE out there.

1) No I'm not envious I'm already broke as fuck so even when he was at his previous job I could've been envious of him living rent free at his parents with his shit job

2) Yes I've seen this in my own family and it's starting to actually tear us apart, he won't heed my warnings. Basically people did stuff without real agreements and the value of a property sky rocketed now no one knows how to resolve it luckily it's not my affair yet until my parents die.

3) Yeah I don't see how flipping houses is a great business idea in this volatile market maybe if we had confirmation that the housing market is crashing for sure but even then you're going to be competing against people with more capital and more skills. It's not easy restoring houses and it's very expensive to hire it out.

4) Yeah I am worried he's dead set on working for himself but it just doesn't always go that way and especially when you're asking for basically free money from your family is it really worth taking that kind of risk? What happens if he gets fed up with starting this business and doesn't want to do it anymore? But obviously living rent free in a 300k home he will not be homeless and have family to fall back onto but I'd recommend using family as a safety net rather then a shot at a potentially failing business that could jeopardize family relationships (they are already very skeptical and basically telling him no but he's trying to use the leverage of his mom being the head of estate or whatever out of the 3 total owners)

5) As said before no I'm not jealous as far as I'm aware, I'm just very skeptical about DEBT and families because I've seen it destroy my own

The part that is guaranteed to fail is that the house is owned by family, or at least the family has interest in it? This will cause problems when people think he should of done less, more, sold higher, lower, spent more time, sold sooner, etc. Why bother with the headache?

unless you have an experienced, reliable team of like-minded contractor-types in place (as well as good financing) youre probably gonna fuck yourself real good.

If you really want to flip, just a do a 2-3 year live-in flip and try to snowball that money into larger properties and/or mult-family rentals.

I seriously doubt most people have the organizational an managerial skills to even execute a flip in most markets.

I missed the part where you explained why you even care. If he offers a deal to fix up someone else's house in return for some of the proceeds from selling it, then the owners of the house can accept it or not.

Then you should give him the advice to make clear agreements about this and maybe consult with a lawyer. But anyway if they're letting him live there basically for free they're probably pushovers anyway so he hasn't much to worry from that.

Well he definitely cannot buy the house from them and even that would be iffy if he's buying it for more then what it's worth, in my opinion the clean way to do it is just charge them for the repairs and fixing up and the process of selling the house but he's leaving it up to luck weather he makes out with a bunch of free money or at least some free money.

His numbers aren't that far off from reality... Contracting companies charge ridiculous premiums for managing the trades you mentioned. Also, buying houses under market, repairing them so the future owners (or you) can justify an extra $500/month in rent, then either selling or refinancing them and pocketing the difference is very realistic, very doable, and thousands of people do it every single day. You're making the entire area that house is in more valuable, and making the banks/lenders/etc shitloads of money.

Your family tore itself apart because its shitty. Its shitty because the people in it are shitty. You brought your concerns to him and he declined to see things from your point of view. If you werent a shitty person youd have left it at that because its none of your business and its pretty much out of your control. The reason you suck is because instead of respecting personal boundaries like an emotionally mature adult would do upon being told, “no”, you choose to further seek out validation of your own opinion. Even if we all agreed with you what would that accomplish for him, the only one whom this matter concerns? Fuck all is what it would do and thats why youre family sucks too. You arent doing what youre supposed to be doing, which right now is literally nothing. Instead, not only are you defending an irrelevant opinion on a matter you arent a part of but youre trying to drag more people in to it who have even less business with it than you do.

You know how your friend doesnt do any electrical work because he knows he doesnt have any business fucking with that kind of shit? You could learn a thing or two from this guy desu. Ask him if hed be willing to teach you anything. Learn as much from him as you can. As a bonus, if it turns out that youve been right the whole time and what hes doing really is a bad idea, he might be willing to listen when he knows you at least have some level of active interest in the matter.

>trying to make money in the house market
There are ways to get rich with this, but there is so much work required and also luck that it's very risky.

For example if you aren't a real home owner for a long time, you don't even know what to look for.
For example:
Retards who never owned a house
>WOW, THIS HOUSE LOOKS SO BEAUTIFUL, I BUY IT!!!!
Real home owners
>so, tell me about the pipes. Has this home any damages that aren't listed on the paper work. Was damaged always repaired by a specialized firm? What is behind the walls? Any illegal "home increase"? What is on the papers of the home?
In fact if you ever had owned a home, you are most likely not even looking at the house itself, but you want to know more about the neighborhood, what is in the house you can't see, and other stuff that most new hose interest don't even know exist.
One simple example most new house owners don't know is that EVERYTHING YOU DON'T LIKE WILL MOST LIKELY NEVER CHANGE. In fact there is a saying around home owners "If you don't like it like it is, it's cheaper to just destroy it and build it from scratch". EVEN REAL PROFESSIONALS, who do nothing else than flipping homes, are sometimes overestimate the work that has to be done. If you see a house that isn't ready to move in right away, you are fucked, because "repairing" a house can get from "just a little paint" to "I have to literally rebuild the house" and you only know how fucked you are after professionals tell you that you are fucked and this house with crash on your head if you aren't pretty much rebuild it for hundred of thousands of $.

what they actually do is slap a coat of paint, do some meme decorating, and then increase the price by 50%. not contributing a whole lot to society there.

nope, time to gtfo of those houses you cant afford and get them back on the market so people that can afford them can buy. mortgage backed securities might take a short term hit but they are rock solid after the lessons learned from 2008

we're shopping for a home now, and it's pretty fucked. Granted we're in an ultra cucked area that's literally 100%+ overpriced in the best of times (Northern VA), but shit feels super bubble tier:
>houses jacked up 20%+ in the past 3-6 months
>people doing $50K earnest offers
>houses sold within 2-3 days of listing
>about 90% of property sales I see in county data are to chinks and indians
>new constructions arbitrarily jacking up prices ~$5K every two weeks or so
I don't think shit's going to improve at all though, not with endless hoaxvirus shit, endless foreclosure moratorium (IMO it's coming), hyperinflation, and housing gibz. It's like simultaneously as good as its gonna get a time to buy while also being the worst time to buy :/

He is risking a crash in the housing market because prices have been spiking way to hard lately and we have supposedly set up another bubble situation with all the low interest loans.
At the end of the movie "the big short" it has been described that another verison of the thing that causes the first bubble is being redone

it's hard to tell what's true and what the (((narrative))) is, but it feels like you lose no matter what.
Increased govt spending is going to jack up interest rates more than likely, and it's basically you either buy overpriced shit now and I guess risk a housing crash soon, or wait a few years and get priced out cause housing just kept clownrocketing AND rates are higher in addition.
Shit already may be going down, cause we were seeing like 2.25% rate / 2.27% APR / 0.375 points type 30-year loans a few weeks ago. Today? Same shit is like 3%+ with 3%+ APR and fucking 3 points.

Can't you express yourself without being abusive? It makes you seem unsure of what you're saying, when you have to embellish it with insulting language. It also makes for rather a dull read, despite what you think. Perhaps that's it, right? DO you realise that the points you're trying to make sound a little plain on their own, so you feel a lot of swearing will spice it all up? Top tip: It doesn't.

if the current owner has to default, the faster those houses are on the market the better
