How to Flip $1,000 into $20,000 in 30 Days

If you’re looking to buy low and sell high, one of the best places to start is a market that you’re passionate about. For me, I’ve always been interested in cars, so when I’m looking to create margins in a market that interests me, I look for cars to flip. My typical strategy goes something like this: If I have $1,000 to start, I will begin researching the fastest-selling cars right around the $3,000 mark. If a specific model car is selling fast, it means that it is likely to be selling for under its fair or intrinsic value. Once I’ve identified those target car models, I reach out to anyone selling them and offer them $1,000 cash for the car and keep offering that deal until I find the right seller. It usually takes a bit to find a person who is motivated to sell, but you need to be consistent and persistent in your pursuit. Once you’ve purchased that car you believe is worth $3,000, then sell it! Work to get as close to that $2,000 profit as possible. Create that margin! Once you’ve done that, then repeat the process. Apply the exact same strategy and find the fastest-selling cars at $5,000 this time. The best part about this strategy is that you can apply it wherever your passions lie. Find a market where you can consistently build in margins for yourself, instead of spending your efforts focused on identifying when the markets dip and peak.
