An $80,000 Flip, a Major Market Crash, and Lessons Learned

August 6, 2020

About This Episode

“We can give you $80,000.”

When Darryl heard those words, his life changed forever.

He had just flipped his first house and was getting ready to rent it out.

He was at the bank trying to see how much equity he could tap to fund his next project.

The banker told him he was approved for $80,000.

And that set in motion a real estate investing journey spanning more than a decade of ups-and-downs, including a brush with near-bankruptcy in the wake of the 2008 crash.

Darryl’s story is one of perseverance and transformation.

It’s a story of success and sacrifice.

And no matter where you are in your own house flipping or wholesaling journey…

…there’s a takeaway in it for you.

Listen in as Darryl tells all (including how he flipped that first house) in today’s episode of the 7 Figure Flipping Podcast!
