Welcome back to Season 5 of Raising the Flipping Bar!
In this episode, I’m sharing a mid-year 2025 market update and breaking down what’s really happening in the Denver Metro real estate scene. From shifting inventory levels to changing buyer behavior, I go over the latest DMAR housing stats, interest rate impacts, and why I call this a “bipolar market.”
Here’s what I cover:
Why I decided to bring podcast production in-house and the long-term ROI behind it
How I’m sharpening sales strategies by working directly in the business again
The AI tools I’m using in real estate investing and how they’re helping
Pricing strategies that are actually moving flips in today’s market
What’s working—and what’s not—for flips in different price brackets
Behind-the-scenes updates on my team, projects, and what’s next
I’ll also share pro tips for negotiating concessions, staying competitive with finishes, and positioning flips to sell fast—even in this tougher market.
Sources I reference include DMAR, Zillow, Redfin, City of Denver Housing Reports, and ATTOM’s Q2 Flipping Report.
Coming up, I’ll be diving into:
A full deal analysis breakdown (including a recent loss and lessons learned)
Marketing shifts I’m making to adapt in 2025
