7FF 772: He Flipped 1 House and Made $286K (Crazy Story)

March 13, 2025

About This Episode

Imagine flipping 1 house… and walking away with $286 profit.

In today’s episode of the 7 Figure Flipping Podcast, I’m hanging out with 7 Figure Runway member Ralph Rivera as he shares how he took on a $1.5 million house flip and walked away with $286k in profit.

Starting out, Ralph was focused on homes around the $400K price point with a $50K renovation budget. 

After setting his sights on bigger things…

(And systematizing + scaling his business)...

…he started flipping houses worth millions.

And the impact has been massive.

Listen in to get the whole story.

Don’t let capital hold you back from your next deal.

I hear this all the time… “I can’t flip houses because I don’t have enough money.”

Or “I can only flip 1 house per year because all my money is tied up in the deal.”

If this is what’s holding you back, the secret to breaking through and scaling your business is understanding how to get access to private capital.

Check out Bill Allen’s 5-Day Flip Funding Challenge, where he walks you through the exact steps to raise capital for your flips without bank loans, cold calling investors, or anything you might have heard of.

This is a simple, repeatable system to get all the funding you need for your deals.

(I took this challenge myself and used the steps Bill taught to raise $370,000 of private capital in 5 days!!!)
