How to Find Flip Opportunities That Lead to Real Wealth
Episode 204
Wednesday, 7 January, 2026
In today’s market, where inventory is tight and listings don’t always guarantee a sale, relying only on commissions leads to unstable income. Building up a portfolio of income-producing properties isn’t just a way to build wealth; it’s how you protect yourself from the ups and downs of selling real estate. Fixing and flipping houses is the gateway to rental income, but most agents don’t know where to begin. How do you start generating flip opportunities without adding more hours, chasing sketchy deals, or completely reinventing your business? Agents ask me this all the time, but what they don’t realize is how close they already are to these opportunities. Most agents are doing the right activities every single day…they’re just aiming them at one outcome instead of three. When you shift your mindset to see every seller conversation as a potential listing, flip, or long-term hold, you stop chasing transactions and start building leverage into your business. If you want 2026 to be the year you kick off building real estate wealth, there are a few strategies that seem simple on the surface, but unlock far more income, flexibility, and long-term control than most agents ever experience. Why do so many agents work harder every year but feel more financially stuck? What changes when you stop building your business for commissions and start building it for ownership? In this episode, I break down how agents can start generating flip opportunities using the same activities they’re already doing, and how those flips become the bridge to long-term, passive income. Things You’ll Learn In This Episode Why flips aren’t the goal Flipping is a means to an end, not the outcome. How do flop profits become long-term passive income? The “triple-threat” mindset most agents never adopt Every seller appointment can lead to a listing, a flip, or a buy-and-hold. How do you prospect for transactions and start prospecting for assets? Why social media is the most underutilized income tool agents have Most agents post sporadically, or not at all, and wonder why opportunities don’t show up. How does consistent visibility quietly create deal flow without adding hours to your day?
