Fixing &amp; Flipping Houses.&nbsp; Everyone dreams of flipping houses, but very few ever really do it.&nbsp; Why is that?&nbsp; Rehabs are fun and challenging, and the profits can be enormous.&nbsp; Plus, compared to other investments, you receive your profits in months (not years). Not to mention those HGTV shows are just so additive. So why don’t more people do it?&nbsp; The answer is simple; people don’t know how to get started.&nbsp; They don’t know where to turn, what to do, or who to trust.&nbsp; Well, stay tuned, because we have the answer. &nbsp; Guest Speaker. The answer is Don Costa, our very special guest speaker at our October meeting. &nbsp;During his presentation, Don will cover four crucial topics: (1) How to find houses to flip, (2) How to finance your purchase, (3) How to rehab your property, and (4) How to flip your house quickly for fun and profit.&nbsp; Specifically, Don will be discussing: &nbsp;

*&nbsp; Finding the perfect flip
*&nbsp; Funding your rehabs the right way
*&nbsp; Systems to manage your team &amp; timeline
*&nbsp; Tips to cash flow as you grow
*&nbsp; Maximizing your exit (getting the most profit out of each flip) &nbsp;
If you’re already fixing and flipping houses, or just getting started, you’re going to love Don’s presentation!&nbsp; Don is going to explain why “fixing &amp; flipping” is the most lucrative (and most fun) strategy in real estate investing.&nbsp; Plus, he has plenty of real estate experiences and examples to share with you.&nbsp; Most importantly, he has actually done it with hundreds of rehabs throughout California. Don is going to show you how to get started and be successful.&nbsp;
Date &amp; Time: Thursday night, October 8, 2026, 6:30 to 9:30 pm.&nbsp;
Location:&nbsp;Iman Cultural Center, 3376 Motor Avenue, LA 90034 (between National and Palms).&nbsp;
