Are you making moola flipping homes?  ✅💯🔆

SouthCreek Flips Shows Us How to Fix-and-Flip Like a Boss

As you may know, Level 4 Funding is a hard money lender, and we help many people realize their dreams, especially those who focus on fixes and flips or rehabs. Occasionally, we come across someone whose story and work are just too inspirational not to share. Pam Bauer and Marsha Burton of SouthCreek Fix and Flips are two such people. Marsha was kind enough to talk briefly about their recent flips and what keeps them in the business.

Pam's Been a General Contractor for 25 Years

A background in the industry makes the transition to flipping houses much more accessible. Pam's 25 years of work as a general contractor gave her an excellent background for fix-and-flips. With nine years of direct fix-and-flip experience and Marsha as a partner, SouthCreek Flips has completed 18 properties in 3 years.

The Pair Follows the Motto, "The Uglier, the Better"

While those just getting into the fix-and-flip business will likely want to select modest projects, the expertise these ladies bring to the table means they can tackle homes that others might shy away from. "Hoarder houses," as Marsha calls them, are a favorite. The pair explicitly targets homes that might appear beyond help to others due to trash and debris, filth, or shoddy upkeep, and often networks with realtors and other real estate investors to help ensure the suitable projects land with the right rehabbers.

Carving Out a Family Paradise is its Reward

Even though fix-and-flips can be lucrative if you know what you're doing, Marsha says they're driven by more altruistic means. The pair works primarily in low-income areas, restoring 2-3-bedroom homes for people who want a nice place to stay near family but can't find quality housing. Her favorite project to date involved rehabbing a hoarder house with mold problems. The house sold before it even listed for more than the asking price because the buyer was so excited to have the opportunity to purchase a lovely home near his mother.

After All These Years, Some Homes Still Come with Surprises

Those who do fix-and-flips for a living have expert eyes and know how to size up a property well, but even the pros find ugly surprises from time to time. We asked Marsha what their biggest surprise was thus far. "We noticed some plumbing was a little corroded when replacing a fixture," she explained. "You can rig a house to death and put it on the market and Pam, and just I can't do that." So, they did what they always do: address the corroded plumbing. Unfortunately, this led to an unsavory discovery: a former owner created his sewer system with cinder blocks. The pair were forced to drill it all out, remove it, and replace it to code.

Watch for More to Come from SouthCreek Flips

The dynamic duo has been focused purely on their projects thus far and doesn't have a digital footprint yet, so be on the lookout for a website in the future. You may also catch their current project on Garfield, which will be hitting the listings any day now.
