In this episode of The Roots Podcast, founders Max Moore and Tyler Lingle sit down with Dave Short, a veteran house flipper and legendary figure in Indy real estate, to unpack what it really takes to flip houses at scale. With over 470 flips under his belt since the 1970s, Dave shares the hard-earned lessons that separate successful investors from the ones who burn out fast.
From structuring contractor crews and avoiding common rookie mistakes to securing private capital and running seven flips at once, Dave gets into the gritty details of building a sustainable flipping business. Whether you’re on your first deal or looking to scale to $2M+ in active projects, this episode is packed with gold.
