7 Simple Steps to Flip Houses & Build Rental Wealth

Are you ready to make money in real estate? It’s easier than you think! Many people are flipping houses and building rental properties to earn both quick cash and monthly income.
In this blog, you’ll learn how one smart team is growing their real estate business by fixing homes, renting properties, and working with wholesalers. You don’t need to be rich or have years of experience. With the right plan and attitude, anyone can find real estate success in today’s real estate market.
Watch this quick video to see how successful real estate investors flip houses, build rental income, and grow their businesses step-by-step.
How to Start a Real Estate Business Plan That Works
No successful real estate investor jumps in without a plan. One growing team has a clear goal: flip 100 homes in just one year. To do that, they’ve built a system with three parts:
- A home-flipping company
- A construction crew
- A rental team focused on property management
They’re not just flipping homes. They’re building long-term income by growing a portfolio of rental properties. They also plan to start wholesaling—finding distressed homes and helping others buy them—for even more income and connections.
This mix of short-term profit and steady monthly rent helps keep their business strong, even when the real estate market changes.
How to Flip 100 Houses a Year with the Right Team
Flipping houses is about buying, fixing, and selling homes for profit. But flipping one home is different from flipping 100. You need the right people, tools, and systems.
Build a Fast, Reliable Crew
This team hires both full-time workers and trusted subcontractors. Having their own construction crews means they can stay on schedule, keep costs down, and deliver high-quality work.
They also opened a real estate office to keep their work organized. It’s the center of their company—managing flips, rentals, and business deals all in one place.
Where to Find Great Investment Properties
Finding houses to flip takes effort. That’s why they work with local wholesalers who bring them off-market deals—homes not listed online.
When you become known as a buyer who closes fast and doesn’t back out, wholesalers will bring you the best deals first. This helps keep your business moving without wasting time.
Pro Tip: Be honest, responsive, and quick to act. That’s how you earn trust in the investment world.
Why Wholesaling Builds Fast Real Estate Income
Wholesaling real estate is when you find a great deal and help another investor buy it. You earn a fee for connecting the buyer and seller.
This team spent time learning from experts in the industry. They now know how to:
- Find motivated sellers
- Make fair offers
- Close deals that work for everyone
Wholesaling is great for building cash fast, especially if you're just starting out or want to grow your real estate business without a lot of risk.
Using 100% Financing to Flip More Homes
Flipping multiple houses means using smart money. This team works with lenders like Kiavi who offer 100% loan-to-cost (LTC) funding. This means they don’t need to use their own cash upfront.
With creative financing, they can work on more projects at once and keep growing their rental portfolio and flips without slowing down.
When to Hold a Rental Instead of Flipping
The real estate market can change quickly. Sometimes, it’s smarter to hold onto a house instead of flipping it right away.
When prices drop or selling takes longer, this team turns homes into rentals. That way, they still make monthly income and wait for the market to improve.
This flexible approach protects their investments and helps keep cash flow steady.
Real Estate Success Starts with the Right Mindset
This team knows that real estate isn’t just about money—it’s about mindset. To succeed, you have to:
- Keep learning
- Stay positive
- Accept mistakes and grow from them
“If you’re afraid to fail, you’ll miss out on what’s possible. Every failure teaches you something important.”
Confidence, passion, and patience are just as important as finding good deals.
Final Thoughts
Real estate is one of the best ways to build your future. When you mix flipping, renting, and wholesaling, you create more ways to earn money. Stay flexible, build a good team, and keep learning every step of the way.
With smart planning and a positive mindset, you can grow a strong real estate business and find success in any real estate market. Start small, take action, and watch your real estate goals come to life!
