Flipping is becoming more and more accepted by the government and major lending institutions. This is evidenced by Freddie Mac’s recent bulletins, updated credit policies by Wells Fargo to allow for C buyer financing, and revised title bulletins stating that the C purchase price does not need to be revealed to the A lender as long as certain disclosures are made.

The policy change will permit buyers to use FHA-insured financing to purchase HUD-owned properties, bank-owned properties, or properties resold through private sales. This will allow homes to resell as quickly as possible, helping to stabilize real estate prices and to revitalize neighborhoods and communities.
