7FF 778: Why You Need to Track “Burn Rate” (Avoid This $10k Mistake)

April 8, 2025

About This Episode

Today’s episode of the 7 Figure Flipping podcast could save you tens of thousands of dollars.

A lot of house flippers have no idea if they’re profitable.

I sat down with Sam and Will from Auxilee Bookkeeping to talk about why this is…

And they shared the most important financial metric every investor should track—burn rate.

If you’re ready to stop guessing and start growing, the first thing to do is clean up your books.

I started working with Auxilee Bookkeeping because I felt like I couldn’t keep track of cash flow…

…and since bringing them aboard, I now have perfect clarity on where my money is going and how much I’m going to keep each month. (So I can make strategic decisions about what projects to take on, when to scale up, and how to reduce expenses.)

Getting your books SOLID is crucial to making consistent income in this business.

And Auxilee makes it super simple.

If you’re serious about scaling your real estate operation…
