My guest today on my podcast “Let’s Talk Real Estate Investing” is Danny Johnson of Flipping Junkie. The topic is flipping houses for big profits.
Today's topic is on Danny is someone that has built a very successful business flipping houses in San Antonio, TX. A lot of you probably know him from his popular blog Flipping Junkie. Danny and his wife Melissa have 5 children, and they have been investing in real estate for 10 years.
Danny got a corporate job in computer science when he graduated from college. Like a lot of other entrepreneurs, he quickly discovered he really didn’t like working for someone else.
