The problem

Most flip profits do not disappear in one giant blowup. They leak out because you bought a little high, missed a repair, used finishes the neighborhood will not pay for, or let the house sit too long. This class shows you where to look before the deal needs saving.

What you'll walk away able to do

  • Break a flip into purchase price, ARV, rehab, holding costs, selling costs, all-in cost, sale price, and profit
  • Walk a property in a fixed order, starting at the roof, with a better list of systems and repairs to inspect
  • Build a room-by-room scope of work and use the Ten-ish Commandments of Rehabs to avoid expensive assumptions
  • Vet contractors, handle change orders, and know what to put in a lender package before money goes out
  • Plan the finish work, buyer inspection response, photography, and possible BRRRR refinance before the exit gets rushed

Inside the class

  • The 317-slide How to Flip Houses deck and 20 recorded lessons
  • A room-by-room Scope of Work and SOP approach for kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, garages, and the rest of the house
  • A property-walk checklist covering roof, windows, decks, electrical, septic, plumbing, HVAC, flooring, landscaping, and cleaning
  • Rich Tips callouts from mistakes that cost him money, plus repeatable paint-scheme color codes
  • Real flip math, contractor-vetting questions, funding structures, request-for-repairs examples, and BRRRR refinance lessons

Who this is for

This is for someone ready to evaluate a real property and build a scope before making an offer. It is not for someone looking for a shortcut around local due diligence, contractor bids, or deal-specific numbers.

Track record

The class uses Rich's own deal vocabulary, property-walk order, contractor rules, paint schemes, repair examples, and exit decisions. It is the material behind the process he teaches in the FIRE Center Deal Room.

We recommend the room. Zoom works too.

We recommend being in the room for the best experience. Most of it is available on Zoom. Every FIRE Center Wednesday broadcasts live on Zoom as well as in-person, so the room in Riverside isn't the only way in. Here is exactly what you get either way, no hedging.

Available from anywhere

  • Most of the weekly FIRE Center experience is available live on Zoom from anywhere
  • With FIRE Starter, join the Wednesday Deal Room live on Zoom
  • With FIRE Starter, join Wednesday FOCUS sessions live on Zoom
  • FIRE Starter access through the FIRE member app
  • The How to Flip Houses deck, scope-of-work process, property-walk material, and recorded case examples

Why the room is worth it

  • Power Hour dinner at the FIRE Center
  • Face-to-face networking with people in the room
  • Being in the room for the live conversations and energy

Frequently asked questions

How long do I have access?

Lifetime access. Once you buy the class, it's yours to watch and re-watch for as long as FIRE Center offers it.

What if it's not for me?

7-day no-questions refund. If the class isn't a fit, ask within 7 days of purchase and we'll refund it in full.

Can I upgrade to the annual plan later?

Yes. Upgrade within 7 days and we credit the full price you paid.

What does the FIRE Starter annual plan renew at?

$847 is a special first-year offer against our regular $999 list price. After the first year, it renews at $999/year.

What happens to new classes released while I'm on the annual plan?

They're included. FIRE Starter annual members get every class we release while their membership is active, at no extra cost.

Do I need a deal already lined up to take this class?

No. Take it before you have a deal so you know what to inspect, price, and verify when one shows up.

Will this class tell me whether a specific flip will be profitable?

No. It teaches a process. You still need to verify the property condition, market, costs, financing, and assumptions on every deal.
