New numbers on the Southern California housing market provide further evidence that it is an opportune time to flip houses. According to real estate research firm DataQuick, investors flipped 1,377 homes in Southern California during the month of May. That marked the highest number of homes flipped since June 2005 when investors flipped 1,394 homes. According to the firm, a flipped house is considered any home that is bought and resold within six months.
The numbers show that investors are flocking to the Southern California market, which is outpacing much of the rest of the country in terms of houses sold, increases in prices, and numbers of offers on homes. In the current marketplace, sellers are frequently getting multiple offers on homes within a day of putting them on the market. Clearly, the climate is ripe for house flipping, and savvy investors are taking note.
