How Much Are Flippers Making in Today's Tight Market?
About this episode
Home flipping activity fell to a multi-year low in Q1 2025, with just over 67,000 homes flipped—the smallest quarterly total since 2018. Despite representing 8.3% of all sales, profits are shrinking, with the median return on investment dropping to 25%. In this episode, we break down why flippers are struggling, which markets still offer big returns, and where investor risk is mounting as high acquisition costs, longer hold times, and buyer uncertainty compress margins nationwide.
