Flipping Versus Renting Real Estate

When you make an investment in Knoxville real estate, it’s important to consider your options for turning a profit. It might be best to rent out the property to cover your mortgage and build equity. Or, you could fix up the home and flip it so that you can sell it quickly for a larger amount than you invested. Both are appealing options, so here are some important factors to consider before making your decision.

When to Flip

If you are thinking about flipping a house, you will need to have enough capital to invest in the property, so you can make the required improvements and repairs. Flipping a house can be tricky, so you also will want to have enough experience to know what you are doing. Do your research so you’ll know what renovations will have the most impact on the value of your Knoxville real estate.

You will also need to know if the market in the area will support your new price point. Buying and flipping a house in a depressed housing market will not be easy. You will want to do the flip in a very buyer-friendly community for your best chances of a high return.

When to Rent

Flipping a house gives you quick cash, but renting it out instead gives you a monthly cash flow and a larger long-term profit as the property appreciates over time. If you don’t mind being a landlord and you have the time to screen for reliable renters, then renting out the property might be a better option for you.

This option also means that you will have the home later on in case you want to live in it. Of course, don’t forget to factor in additional upkeep costs, such as repairs, utilities and property taxes. Whether you rent out or flip your investment property will depend on whether you are interested in a long-term investment or a short-term project.

    I recently sold my house to Brent, and while this can be a very stressful process for most, I felt 100% confident by selling to him. Brent was honest, gave great feedback, and helped explain clearly all details and managed the sale professionally. In addition, he was extremely responsive to every question and concern no matter how small.

  • Karla

    Working with Brent during the sale of my house was about as easy as it gets. Having the ability to close on my time frame was huge for me in my decision to sell. All I had to do was take my personal belongings!

  • Jeanne & David

    We recently sold our last rental property to Next Gen Property Solutions. Selling this property was by far the easiest process for us. Brent was very professional and knowledgeable and we basically did nothing but show up for the closing! We would definitely do business again with Brent and Next Gen Property Solutions!
