CAR yes there are flippers out there. A guy called me this weekend and he bought a place on I think it was Vineyard for 192K and wanted to sell it for 270k about about 20k in upgrades. I laughed.
The smart flippers are the ones who do it right and purchase at the trustee sales. Lots of rookies getting back in the game now.
Still though from my own perspective I don’t have any personally and I think that perhaps as a percentage of the buyers for many types of properties it is still relatively low. Now maybe in some areas like Oceanside the percentage is definitely higher.
