Tips and Tricks - House Flipper

 

Order Your Jobs

Ignore what the game tells you to do first and instead complete jobs in this order to have the least hassle.

  • Pick up Trash
  • Remove/Sell Objects
  • Clean
  • Modify Walls
  • Plaster Walls
  • Paint/Tile/Carpet
  • Mount Devices
  • Place furniture

Check Your Mini-Map

Can't find that pesky device that needs mounting? Well good news, it's red on your mini-map which can save you a lot of time in hunting it down. Things you've already mounted appear in green.

Trash also displays on your map as black grey objects and if you've upgraded your cleaning perks the dirt will show up as black splotches. Walls that need to be knocked down will also be marked as red on the map.

Using your map to locate these objectives in both Email Jobs and House Flipping can make the time it takes to clear these objectives much faster.

Use Your Perks

Use your Perks as soon as you earn them. Anything that makes you more efficient will help you unlock more perks quicker so there's little point holding on to them for extended periods of time.

Definitely grab the 'penetrating vision' perk to see all the dirt in the mini-map and the 'You won't waste paint on an already painted wall' to make yourself more efficient and be able to go back and check which space on the wall was left unpainted.

If you're not sure what to upgrade first, check out our Things to do First Page.

Sell Unused Paint and Tiles

Use your sell tools to sell the paint buckets and leftover tiles.

This won't be available in all modes if the sell tool can't be brought up but you'll get a decent amount of your money back for doing this when you can.

Finish Jobs Early

If you're having trouble finding that last scrap of dirt there's no shame in handing in a job not at 100%.

You'll save yourself the frustration of looking for that last patch and the money won't be that different.

Flip Houses for Cash

Sounds obvious as it's the name of the game, but house flipping will get you a lot more money for less work than doing Email Jobs.

Even if you're trying to save up for a house you really want to work on, buying a house and giving it a clean can often get you at least 10k in profit so if you want a fast track to money, ignore your emails as soon as possible.

Renovate With a Buyer In Mind

If you haven't unlocked them yourself yet, have a look at our Buyer Profiles to get an idea of what different buyers are looking for.

Renovating to these briefs will net you the most money and help give you some direction if you're not too sure what to do with a house.

Take Risks

Ultimately, it's very difficult to lose money on a house you've purchased so don't be afraid to try new things with it.

If you want to knock down all the walls you can always rebuild them and crazy colour schemes go unnoticed by most buyers.
