I started flipping cars when I was 19. One of my more memorable flips was a 2004 Mazda 6 got it for $600 and 144k miles with it only needing an ignition coil. Cleared up the headlights, did the ignition coils, and gave it a good cleaning. I then listed it for 2k. Now to the good part... I had shown the car to someone who was uninterested and took of the engine cover to show them the work I did. Then an hour later had someone who was willing to buy it. They said they wanted it, and I drove with them to the bank. I shit you not the car started smoking at the bank. Then it proceeded to start on fire. Turned out I didn’t screw the engine cover back on. I learned a very important lesson that day. Don’t forget to put insurance on your car when selling it.
@@BuddysDIY The engine cover melted and wreaked havoc causing the hood cable to snap so I couldn’t get the hood open to stop the smoking. The cops were really cool guys and didn’t give me a ticket for no insurance saving my butt. Ended up selling the scorched car to pay for the tow costs. And made $40 to buy myself some comfort food. 😂
Watched the whole vid. Exactly how I have approached the car flip business. I’ve managed to flip 7 cars this year alone. My best flip was purchasing a beat up Toyota Altezza (is300) for $4000. I invested $3,000 on various fixes and swapped it straight across for a 2007 BMW 550i. Heavily modified. Which I sold within a week for $15000. A profit of $8000. Greatest accomplishment. This video was the exact steps I took. This will definitely show you how it’s done. Good work
@@jensenlesueur2577 sold my msport 08 550i for 8200$ bought for 6200. congrats man if true thats crazy some dum dum paid 15 for that lol honestly the n62 is a crap motor i did so much service and it was just problems after problems. how the hell did you trade a clapped out toyota for that?
Just got into flipping cars by accident. I bought a truck for $3,500 that was supposed to replace my current work truck. Well I put both my current work truck and the truck I purchased for $3,500 up for sale and the new truck sold for $7,000. Doubled my money. I was so impressed that I started looking at other vehicles to buy and flip. But I have put thought into actually fixing cars up and your content is exactly what I needed to feel confident about taking the step into flipping cars

Man I love seeing these comments!! Im hopeing soon to make this whole thing profitable. Been doing it only 4 months so im still learning. That comment means alor brother! Any recommendations of other content I'm all ears. Seems like my car flipping videos have been getting great reviews!!
@@BuddysDIY The problem with Maaco is, their inconsistent work. I saw some videos on TH-cam, some have great paint jobs and many have bad paint jobs it depends always on the local maaco shop. The paint job for $90 is superb, you cant beat that. Your videos are good but there is no music and you need an intro. There is more but i dont wanna have a feeling that i am too critical.
Naw lay it on me. I'd like to hear feedback. I had an intro but I always talked with others who said an intro gives Impatient propel a reason to click off early. Also music can be Anoyying but it may be a nice touch. Ill dabble with it when I edit the next vid and see. Don't ppl complain about music in videos. I see people comment "ohh thank god you don't have Anoyying music in your vids!" I guess it's all subjective to a point of course. But yeah lay it on me I'd like to hear all feedback from my subscribers
@@BuddysDIY Do a small intro like the Car Wizard. I would use music for fast pace scenarios like sanding or painting. I would had put that on the video full lengthening in fast pace with music in the background. What people underestimate is the consistency of their pictures and graphics they show, some of pictures you put on like the Elephant look like nice but then comes the 1990´s Windows graphics mechanic. And what is really bad, you put so much work in taking pictures and taking videos of the steps you do but then use fonts and backgrounds that look like straight from Microsoft movie maker. And putting pictures of Jack Black(2003), Borat (2006) and Leonardo Di Caprio (2013) is not a good idea, it makes the video older. I hope i was not so hard on you. Good luck buddy.
Watched the entire thing like its 5 minutes. Your style of content creation makes me want to sit down and watch all your videos if I had the time. The way you explain the processes and all the information in the video just really has a lot of flow. I didn't think twice about subscribing to your channel and I hope to see more of these videos in the future. They really are a lesson for me and I can't thank you enough for passing your knowledge along to others like me who don't necessarily want to get into the flipping business but rather just don't want to get ripped off when buying used cars and want to learn more about the restoration of used vehicles. Keep up this content and I guarantee you this channel will become something huge!
I detailed cars more than 20 years ago, with less modern products, you do a great job and it has inspired me to take some time and look into detailing a couple of my own cars and the one that my granddaughter owns. Keep up the good work.
Fun fact: he’s still making money of that car from the ad revenue of this video and people who will watch this and will be inclined to make business with him as proof of his work quality and ethics
Not really. He barely touched 350K views. Now that the video is gaining age, ad companies will no longer put ads on his video and would barely earn a few dollars. It's not all money, money, money bro.
@@TheLondonCyclist Who pissed in your tea? Whether you like it or not, he is and will continue to keep making money, money, money from this car and video.
HIGHLY recommend an OBD like you did in the video. Tested an old 350z out, used obd to find out it had an engine code (it was a minor issue), and used that as a negotiation tactic to grab that baby for $2000 even. Sold it earlier this year for $4000. OBD not only saves lives, it also helps a TON with negotiations
Makes me think... I’ve done every single one of these repairs (and more) by myself at home... except paint. I wish I had the balls and the time to just try 1 flip for myself and see how it goes. I’m learning so much about the process from you. Thanks!
I like the way you go about buying and then carrying out fixing faults and finally flipping the car. You do it with great pride and passion. I think one needs to be mechanically minded and hands on to such job. Well done. I really enjoy watching your videos . 👍
Loving the video series and learning a lot! Few questions since I want to start flipping cars as well. 1.) how long does it usually take you to sell the cars you flip? if it takes too long do you lower your prices? 2.) what if someone asks for trade ups? do you accept (if its a good offer of course) or do you just ignore them/tell them you would prefer cash instead
Hehe this is what I have been doing since I was about 16 years old in 1993, starting with mopeds (scooters) and later cars, and after some years more imported cars from Germany (to Denmark), and for the last 10 years it has been turning more into flipping houses and flats. :)
Wow first time coming across this channel.. I been doing this for the last 3 years LITERALLY the exact same methods picking cars knowing their values..budgeting the expenses flipping them etc..so I can definitely vouch for this..out of pure passion too . !! It's gratifying to see someone else that shares that vision ..! This is too dope bro .one of the .best car flips tutorials I've seen so far.. much respect brother. Earned my subscribe with this.
Awesome to hear man!!! Yeah it's fun. It can be a real pain at times tho. This one was a nightmare. Way too many little things wrong with it. Wayy too many
I'm a car dealer myself and pride myself on not only reputation but quality. You are putting a lot of effort into getting the minimum. Might as well go that extra step to maximize your profit. Don't undervalue your talent especially in today's market. It is a used car but it is a new car to someone else. Make it as perfect as possible and you will get the higher end of kbb. I use several sources myself to evaluate my potential profit. I get what I am asking about 99% of the time. All in all, my family has been doing this 38 years and I have a degree in marketing which makes my skill level higher than most. What do I know, though? You are only showing me so much, right? 😉
I've been flipping cars for 5 years. Its a fun hobby and you learn alot about cars.. I ended up making it my job (kinda) im studying to become a heavy machinery mechanic now and enjoying every second of it :)
I swear ive never enjoyed watching a video thats more than 5 minutes. And this was 19 minutes, what a useful 19 minutes of my life. Cheers mate! New sub 👍
there are so far only 2 channels on TH-cam that I believe are real sources of information for us car guys: yours and ChrisFix's channel and the funny thing is I came across accidentally on both the channels, and instantly subscribed because of the quality content. Thank you so much for sharing information and your experiences. Keep posting such informative videos. Kudos !
I’ve been seriously considering flipping a car to branch out a little from doing furniture and this video explained the process so well. Such a good video!!
I think you are more a restoration company than a flipping company. You restore and deeply investigate issues and repair, much like the house restoration shows. A flip is if I bought this BMW from you at 4000 and then sold it for 4400, without doing anything. You and your girlfriend are knowledgeable and gifted! Thank you for another Vid!
Hey man im still working on it. Apreciate your support! It takes alot of time. Making actual good video takes daysss. Since starting 4 months ago ive gains a new level of respect for TH-camrs!!
Hey buddy, thanks for showing this video it is very educational! Im not a car guru but i do use the flipping technique to upgrade my driving-car as i go, from 1990s daihatsu charade that i own 10 years ago ($500) to 2016 mitsubishi outlander ($15000) 3 years ago, a long way tho! Whenever i sold my car, i would drive my partner's car until i spotted a new potential car. The most challenging part for me is always understanding the car's mechanics so i always stick to the good old toyota. If it has a logbook and the car sounds right (basic oil leak check and etc), i will just buy it right away and have it serviced at my friend's mechanic shop (which is a bonus if you know someone). I always wanted to learn how to spray paint a car because the exterior look always sells better. Im able to do a bit of interior detailing so that helps. Adding door visor, window tint, changing car's audio player to third party touch screen tablet and adding dashcam are my other ways of adding value as long as the profit margin hits right. You just motivated me to want to spray paint my car now!
Painting a car, without a booth or the right equipment, is a nightmare process. So this isn't for beginners but it's definitely possible. Very impressed this was just a weekend of work for you and a helper! (2150$ for 30 hours? works out to ~70$/h?)
Watched both flipping videos. Great quality in every aspect of both! I’d like to get into this to augment my income and start at the bottom because I just don’t have much of a budget to start off. I’d like to see flipping of more low end but dependable vehicles like Toyota and Honda for those of us who want to start out with lower budgets. Maybe $200-300 cars that don’t need more than a couple hundred in parts and selling when done in the $750-1250 range. Camry, Corolla, Accord, Civic or others in that category. Also, repairs that only require moderate toolsets. Thanks a lot for your great content and production quality.
Just in case you were curious, you got me to subscribe within 34 seconds. Your demeanor felt true and you weren't begging to have me view you. Good on you lad, great first impression. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors.
So inspirational man. You earned 2 grand working on a weekend. I also agree with what you said earlier about how you should never look at it like it is just a flip man. A shit reputation will put you out of business real quick.
I have used Macco many times. I have found that it is all about the prep work. Do the prep work yourself and take everything off of the car you do not want painted. Sand it down yourself, body work everything. Then when you take it in pay for their extra Deluxe paint. It's worth it. I've had several cars last well over 10 years with Macco paint going that route.
Question. I scrolled for a bit and didn't see it asked so I'm sorry if you've answered it before. In some states there's a limit on how many cars someone can sell before they have to get a "dealer's license" or something like that. Have you had to do something like that or do you live in a state where it's not necessary. I want to flip cars too but they say in VA where I live, I can only sell 5 cars per year unless I become a dealer or something. This was really educational man thank you.
Awesome man. Yeah I recommend you do your first 5 and then you can make the decision if it's worth getting your dealer license. Also if you have a significant other, brother, sister, parent you can have the title under their name as well (with their permission of course)
Congrats, what an amazing video. I’m glad to see that you remain firm about doing things right about the paint and didn’t go the cheap way to save couple dollars and put in risk your reputation. Cheers all the way from Panama City, Panama 🇵🇦
Just found your channel, you got some good ass videos man thank you. One thing you’re doing in addition to showing us how to work with our hands is the business aspect, something a lot of us forget!
@@BuddysDIY Yeah, my motivation is to be able to get myself a plug-in hybrid, but I currently don't have the money for one, so I want to be able to try trading up cars to work my way up there over the next couple of years. Really pumped by your vids actually, nothing like this in my country (NZ)
Something absolutely crucial and not mentioned in this video, is that to get parts at a reasonable cost you need to get a mechanic license. And don't forget, depending of your state, you have to pay sales taxes when buying a new or used car. In some states you don't paid sales taxes, or you only paid the difference between old and new for trade in, but for most states you paid full states taxes for any transaction, for example 9.25% in California and about 2% DMV.
@@jz3430 when you buy the car and transfer the ownership, you need to pay the tax. unless the seller doesn't care, then the car is still under his ownership. most of seller won't do this.
@@bluegables incorrect. See my original comment. Sales tax is paid when you register the car. The sales tax is calculated at the tax rate for the county and state that you register the vehicle in.
Great job and very informative. If I could ask for 1 thing it would be for actual hours of time spent on repairs, etc. vs. profit. As they say- time is money. When you have kids you realize how true that statement is, and how much "time" is actually worth. It's one of the few things you can't make more of. Enjoying what you are doing can also be priceless.
@@BuddysDIY I am in IT, when we calculate the time to charge, my boss always reminds us need to include all the meeting, talking, writing, and everything related to this project. I estimate your time need to be doubled.
Lol not even close to doubled. I work on multiple.projects at once and I can do a job calculated at a shop that would take 2 hours in less than an hour almost every time
Completely agree dude! I understand that this is your business (flipping cars) but you MUST do it properly everytime because if you dont, your reputation will go down the drain and soon you wont have a business anymore! Do it right first time, dont cut corners and sucess will come with it 👏👏 good video 😊
Tonnes of skills - business, research, negotiation, car repair which includes engine, interior, exterior, body paint, polishing… after that selling process… Do you think one human masters all these skills? Mostly not! Good job!!!!
I love how you insist on the fact that it not just a flip. Few weeks ago I bought a wrx from a guys who I learned that own the vehicule for obly 4 days, he was the kind of crap that makes you hate reseller and flipper. But the way you see it I totally approuved and respect that.
Rather than investing in that painting equipment, I would try to work out a "wholesale" deal with a local paint shop as you will be a frequent customer, but otherwise this is great content. Keep up the good work!
I don't think a shop (reputable body shop) would touch it for less than $3, 000, even doing it on the side as I do I would still have charged $2000 for that job, base coat/ clear coat though with wet sand and polished. Definitely good for you learning to do it yourself, otherwise profits disappear quickly. TC in Annapolis MD
@@savydavidson7487 that’s too generalized. I always take pride in maintaining my car and keeping it running in pristine condition. So, you know… not ALL Americans are lazy. 😁 I’d wager that the lazy factor is pretty universal around most of the world anymore.
@@savydavidson7487 I don't think we're any lazier than most other countries, really if we had enough mechanics that would work on European cars we wouldn't be afraid.
1500$ huh? Damn, for that price I'd be driving that shit as is haha. You can't even get a half of this car here in Germany. Literally halved, sawed in the middle.
Days, not hours. So true. Video is very good. No fluff, just good info. I love cars, love working on cars, experienced video creator/editor but I don't have time for that when I'm working on a car. Glad I found another good source for all things car-related. Subscribed. 👍
I thought you were just a scimb bag just flipping to flip for profit but after I saw your detail and care for those around you I decided to subscribe, hell yea make the money
im subbing not only because the videos are good but because ur a genuine honest person.. i do the same thing and think the same way when i sell my phones that i buy and flip. reputation is more important than money sometimes.
Been flipping cars since i was 14! I am now 20 in my own place with a 2020 Mustang GT and a 2017 E-Class. best part? I’m self employed and have all the time i want in the world. This is the best thing you could do.
I love how half of these comments are "can I do *sketchy paperwork thing* when flipping cars" and the poster replies every time " I'm a dealer. Do the paperwork properly"
owned a 330i 06 with 290k on it. ripped the sh!!t out of it but never skipped a beat. except had the famous lifter tick for the n52 but very reliable .
I noticed that you don't include title, registration & insurance fees. Are you a licensed dealer? Here in Arizona I have to pay all those fees and can only sell 5 or 6 cars a year without a dealers license. I subbed your channel. I appreciate your high integrity on not ripping people off.
Just a hint: Since you do it for a living and might sand cars more often than your average joe I'd recommend using a mask whilst sanding. Last thing you want is crappy health in your mid 40s.
@@BuddysDIY great vid tho bro I’ve flipped cars before too. I flipped a silver e46 I got for 300$ for 3500$ put it in 1k so total of 1300$ sold for 3500$ so I made 2200$ too lol
I have been flipping cars my entire life. Even though I have an established IT consultancy that makes money off wage arbitrage I have found a lot of things in common between these businesses - just find the right people, buy the thing cheap (find someone in distress doing a distress sale) sell it and profit. Simple!
How do u get around the whole license or dealer license once you sale so many cars? You can tell me via email stoplookinent@gmail.com or you can answer on here. I sold two cars in a year as a gift. Any more then that I would of got audited are you familiar with what I am implying?
@@stoplookinent4791 I know people selling 5 cars at once to upgrade (for personal reasons). 2 is a small number. If you have a business it’s easy to pass them off as bought for business purpose then liquidated.
@Lawit ygm My question here is there a negative to not transfer it right away? Why is Darwin saying "of course hes ganna say to sign it but if u hustling for real you dont sign it"
Great video. I'm a Beamer guy to and very savvy with bmw issues. I only buy the bmw's with the N52 engine. Bullet proof. Very impressed with the painting segment. You can find the 04 to 12s really cheap here in upstate ny. Soon as an engine light comes on owners get scared and dump them and it's usually just a sensor. Keep posting great videos.
I'm a retired TV repairman. TV repairmen can fix anything. I'm trying to get into car flipping. Got a 2000 Avalon. wrecked. but not bad. 1k. They go for 4k. fingers crossed
Cool video, very informative. Two questions. 1. Do you buy these cars under an LLC. and deduct the associated expenses? 2. Was the car originally black, what do you do about the door jambs and other secondary painted areas when repainting? Thanks for the inspiration, getting ready to try my first flip.
Hey man, just wanted to say that you should look at the time put in the car also. Your time and effort is just as important as how much money you make at the end of the sale. Nice video🙏
When you decided to start flipping cars how much money did you have to start with and what car/truck etc did you happen to buy? Been thinking very seriously of trying my hand at this, been around it my whole childhood life as a kid watching my step dad do it but thats been yrs ago so curious of what your budget was when getting started on your 1st flip is all. Great content as well!!
Good video and great profit. I'd like to see the total time commitment though....trip to junkyard, priming, painting, locks, etc. That's the part that worries me. You have a great background to do these things but it would take me twice as long lol
This video was very informational! Highly recommend this video to anyone who's looking to flip their car! I learned a lot from this video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge on how to flip cars @Buddy's DIY!

I didn't think twice about subscribing to your channel and I hope to see more of these videos in the future. They really are a lesson for me and I can't thank you enough for passing your knowledge along to others like me who don't necessarily want to get into the flipping business but rather just don't want to get ripped off when buying used cars and want to learn more about the restoration of used vehicles. Keep up this content and I guarantee you this channel will become something huge!
Thank you!!! Appreciate the support ☺️
I detailed cars more than 20 years ago, with less modern products, you do a great job and it has inspired me to take some time and look into detailing a couple of my own cars and the one that my granddaughter owns. Keep up the good work.
Fun fact: he’s still making money of that car from the ad revenue of this video and people who will watch this and will be inclined to make business with him as proof of his work quality and ethics
Not really. He barely touched 350K views. Now that the video is gaining age, ad companies will no longer put ads on his video and would barely earn a few dollars. It's not all money, money, money bro.

I've been 'flipping cars' for many decades. Buy them at $40k+ (CPO 2-3 years old), drive them for 7~9 years, then sell them for $1,500. ;-) !!

I flipped my 2019 320i. Had a crane cone to unflip it.
@@oscarsalazar2166 Yeah? Literally going to copy and paste someone else's comment including the typo? :p

You're an inspiration to me, finding your videos with one of the best things that ever happened to me. Thank you
HIGHLY recommend an OBD like you did in the video. Tested an old 350z out, used obd to find out it had an engine code (it was a minor issue), and used that as a negotiation tactic to grab that baby for $2000 even.
Sold it earlier this year for $4000. OBD not only saves lives, it also helps a TON with negotiations
1000% homie!!
How, just how you get a Nissan 350Z for 2000$ please let me know!
Makes me think... I’ve done every single one of these repairs (and more) by myself at home... except paint. I wish I had the balls and the time to just try 1 flip for myself and see how it goes.
I’m learning so much about the process from you. Thanks!
Hey man you can read every cookbook in the world. Untill you get out there and start cooking you'll never be a pro.
Take the leap!!
@@BuddysDIY I like that
Do it man!
I like the way you go about buying and then carrying out fixing faults and finally flipping the car. You do it with great pride and passion. I think one needs to be mechanically minded and hands on to such job. Well done. I really enjoy watching your videos . 👍
I like how you push for quality and the reputation aspect in your video. It's so true and nice to see some people still value this in their business.
This channel's going to blow up. Imma call it right now
I appreciate it man. You'll be one of thr first subs!
Loving the video series and learning a lot! Few questions since I want to start flipping cars as well.
1.) how long does it usually take you to sell the cars you flip? if it takes too long do you lower your prices?
2.) what if someone asks for trade ups? do you accept (if its a good offer of course) or do you just ignore them/tell them you would prefer cash instead
Hehe this is what I have been doing since I was about 16 years old in 1993, starting with mopeds (scooters) and later cars, and after some years more imported cars from Germany (to Denmark), and for the last 10 years it has been turning more into flipping houses and flats. :)
Awesome man! I'm happy for you :D

Wow first time coming across this channel.. I been doing this for the last 3 years LITERALLY the exact same methods picking cars knowing their values..budgeting the expenses flipping them etc..so I can definitely vouch for this..out of pure passion too . !! It's gratifying to see someone else that shares that vision ..! This is too dope bro .one of the .best car flips tutorials I've seen so far.. much respect brother.
Earned my subscribe with this.
Awesome to hear man!!! Yeah it's fun. It can be a real pain at times tho. This one was a nightmare. Way too many little things wrong with it. Wayy too many
This was a really good video🔥 You explained everything perfectly

I have been flipping and trading cars for years and years, this is one of the most complete tutorials for exactly how this should be done.
Same been flipping cars for 10 years now
@@mandyjane1362 are you getting good amount of money from doing this business ?
I'm a car dealer myself and pride myself on not only reputation but quality. You are putting a lot of effort into getting the minimum. Might as well go that extra step to maximize your profit. Don't undervalue your talent especially in today's market. It is a used car but it is a new car to someone else. Make it as perfect as possible and you will get the higher end of kbb. I use several sources myself to evaluate my potential profit. I get what I am asking about 99% of the time. All in all, my family has been doing this 38 years and I have a degree in marketing which makes my skill level higher than most. What do I know, though? You are only showing me so much, right? 😉
I appreciate the wisdom brother! Can spill all the secrets 😉
Bro if you're putting this much work into a "flip" then it's barely even a flip. You're legit saving cars. Nice man!
Yeah all the videos I will be posting will be pretty big projects
Yes! Yes! More!
As an inspiring car dealer, you have no idea how helpful this is! Thanks a bunch!
No problem brother. Car dealers usually work with more volume and less profit per car. But I enjoy turning a wrench!
I've been flipping cars for 5 years. Its a fun hobby and you learn alot about cars.. I ended up making it my job (kinda) im studying to become a heavy machinery mechanic now and enjoying every second of it :)
Awesome brother. I'm glad to hear. It is alot if fun!!
@@BuddysDIY Also gotten pretty good at detailing. Got like 3000€ in detailing tools alone. Cars are good money.
@@BuddysDIY I also hate ppl who flip cars with the mentality "its just a flip" when I sell cars I want to give the buyer a good car just like you! 😂
Your voice is smooth like butter that has been sitting on the table at room temperature all day.
Lmfaooo I seriously don't think so
I swear ive never enjoyed watching a video thats more than 5 minutes. And this was 19 minutes, what a useful 19 minutes of my life. Cheers mate! New sub 👍
Awesome to hear brother. I have two others out right now!
This guy gave good information, but also a life lesson, about never cheaping out on important things
Glad you found some value!!
there are so far only 2 channels on TH-cam that I believe are real sources of information for us car guys: yours and ChrisFix's channel and the funny thing is I came across accidentally on both the channels, and instantly subscribed because of the quality content. Thank you so much for sharing information and your experiences. Keep posting such informative videos. Kudos !
Please keep doing these videos, they are gold and you will eventually be huge on TH-cam doing this. Great work
Thank you! I definitely will!
I’ve been seriously considering flipping a car to branch out a little from doing furniture and this video explained the process so well. Such a good video!!
I think you are more a restoration company than a flipping company. You restore and deeply investigate issues and repair, much like the house restoration shows. A flip is if I bought this BMW from you at 4000 and then sold it for 4400, without doing anything. You and your girlfriend are knowledgeable and gifted! Thank you for another Vid!
I never heard about people that flip cars for a living.
You combined my passion with an income.
Dream life. Love your channel.
Thank you!! Appreciate the love!!
never heard of a dealership? :D
How do you not have millions of subscribers this the best Diy channel by far
Hey man im still working on it. Apreciate your support! It takes alot of time. Making actual good video takes daysss. Since starting 4 months ago ive gains a new level of respect for TH-camrs!!

I just started 4 months ago! I'll hit 100k soon enough!!!! You guys willnnot free merch when I blow up for being om the first 1k!
@@camyeoman4180 Yeah he should be over 1 million for the quality of the videos and how much he posts
Yousif imma do it bother
Hey buddy, thanks for showing this video it is very educational! Im not a car guru but i do use the flipping technique to upgrade my driving-car as i go, from 1990s daihatsu charade that i own 10 years ago ($500) to 2016 mitsubishi outlander ($15000) 3 years ago, a long way tho! Whenever i sold my car, i would drive my partner's car until i spotted a new potential car. The most challenging part for me is always understanding the car's mechanics so i always stick to the good old toyota. If it has a logbook and the car sounds right (basic oil leak check and etc), i will just buy it right away and have it serviced at my friend's mechanic shop (which is a bonus if you know someone). I always wanted to learn how to spray paint a car because the exterior look always sells better. Im able to do a bit of interior detailing so that helps. Adding door visor, window tint, changing car's audio player to third party touch screen tablet and adding dashcam are my other ways of adding value as long as the profit margin hits right. You just motivated me to want to spray paint my car now!
Painting a car, without a booth or the right equipment, is a nightmare process. So this isn't for beginners but it's definitely possible.
Very impressed this was just a weekend of work for you and a helper! (2150$ for 30 hours? works out to ~70$/h?)
Watched both flipping videos. Great quality in every aspect of both! I’d like to get into this to augment my income and start at the bottom because I just don’t have much of a budget to start off. I’d like to see flipping of more low end but dependable vehicles like Toyota and Honda for those of us who want to start out with lower budgets. Maybe $200-300 cars that don’t need more than a couple hundred in parts and selling when done in the $750-1250 range. Camry, Corolla, Accord, Civic or others in that category. Also, repairs that only require moderate toolsets. Thanks a lot for your great content and production quality.
Just in case you were curious, you got me to subscribe within 34 seconds. Your demeanor felt true and you weren't begging to have me view you. Good on you lad, great first impression. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors.
Brooo! Well. Damn. DONE! You're smart, capable and well spoken. Your grind is impressive and I'm lovin the channel. Proud early sub and Keep on it!!
appreciate the love man! more great stuff to come
So inspirational man. You earned 2 grand working on a weekend. I also agree with what you said earlier about how you should never look at it like it is just a flip man. A shit reputation will put you out of business real quick.
I have used Macco many times. I have found that it is all about the prep work. Do the prep work yourself and take everything off of the car you do not want painted. Sand it down yourself, body work everything. Then when you take it in pay for their extra Deluxe paint. It's worth it. I've had several cars last well over 10 years with Macco paint going that route.
Question. I scrolled for a bit and didn't see it asked so I'm sorry if you've answered it before. In some states there's a limit on how many cars someone can sell before they have to get a "dealer's license" or something like that. Have you had to do something like that or do you live in a state where it's not necessary. I want to flip cars too but they say in VA where I live, I can only sell 5 cars per year unless I become a dealer or something. This was really educational man thank you.
Oop just found a comment where you answered my question lol awesome. I'm going to try my first flip because of you
Awesome man. Yeah I recommend you do your first 5 and then you can make the decision if it's worth getting your dealer license. Also if you have a significant other, brother, sister, parent you can have the title under their name as well (with their permission of course)
Don't register it, sell it to the next person using old persons info 😂
@@cheabosscray1650 I know a few people who do that. Its not legal, but to each their own
@@BuddysDIY haha yes I know. I've done it a few times when I was hurting for cash.

Smart move on the paint job and i just became a subscriber. Also, your girl is pretty cool for helping out alot.
She's dope? Welcome to the channel!!
Agreed. You have a great partner 🙂
Something absolutely crucial and not mentioned in this video,
is that to get parts at a reasonable cost you need to get a mechanic license.
And don't forget, depending of your state, you have to pay sales taxes when buying a new or used car.
In some states you don't paid sales taxes, or you only paid the difference between old and new for trade in,
but for most states you paid full states taxes for any transaction,
for example 9.25% in California and about 2% DMV.
You only pay sales tax when you register the car. If he had it for only a few days, then he probably didn't register it.
@@jz3430 when you buy the car and transfer the ownership, you need to pay the tax. unless the seller doesn't care, then the car is still under his ownership. most of seller won't do this.
@@bluegables incorrect. See my original comment. Sales tax is paid when you register the car. The sales tax is calculated at the tax rate for the county and state that you register the vehicle in.
The most underrated channel!
Great job and very informative. If I could ask for 1 thing it would be for actual hours of time spent on repairs, etc. vs. profit. As they say- time is money. When you have kids you realize how true that statement is, and how much "time" is actually worth. It's one of the few things you can't make more of. Enjoying what you are doing can also be priceless.
I had about 16-18 hours in this car. So you can figure 120 an hours.
No boss. Not set scedule. My freedom is priceless ❤️
@@BuddysDIY I am in IT, when we calculate the time to charge, my boss always reminds us need to include all the meeting, talking, writing, and everything related to this project. I estimate your time need to be doubled.
Lol not even close to doubled. I work on multiple.projects at once and I can do a job calculated at a shop that would take 2 hours in less than an hour almost every time
Dude this is my 2nd video of yours that I’ve watched and now you have a long life subscriber. Great job to you and your helper LOL much respect.
Be sure to check out all 4 episodes!! And more to come I the future bro!!!
Completely agree dude! I understand that this is your business (flipping cars) but you MUST do it properly everytime because if you dont, your reputation will go down the drain and soon you wont have a business anymore!

When a woman is down to help you work on your car on anything related to it, she's a keeper.
She's a good girlfriend for sure!
Tonnes of skills - business, research, negotiation, car repair which includes engine, interior, exterior, body paint, polishing… after that selling process… Do you think one human masters all these skills? Mostly not! Good job!!!!
I love how you insist on the fact that it not just a flip. Few weeks ago I bought a wrx from a guys who I learned that own the vehicule for obly 4 days, he was the kind of crap that makes you hate reseller and flipper. But the way you see it I totally approuved and respect that.
Thanks man. I try to make sure my cars are 100%
Rather than investing in that painting equipment, I would try to work out a "wholesale" deal with a local paint shop as you will be a frequent customer, but otherwise this is great content. Keep up the good work!
To be real I love painting hahah
@@BuddysDIY hey if you loved what you’re doing keep doing it !!!
I don't think a shop (reputable body shop) would touch it for less than $3, 000, even doing it on the side as I do I would still have charged $2000 for that job, base coat/ clear coat though with wet sand and polished.
Definitely good for you learning to do it yourself, otherwise profits disappear quickly.

@@megaman4201 100% brother. Good paint jobs are not cheap

You can't even get a half of this car here in Germany.
Literally halved, sawed in the middle.

@@foolhardycrab9130 did you get into flipping? I need some tips
I love how half of these comments are "can I do *sketchy paperwork thing* when flipping cars" and the poster replies every time " I'm a dealer. Do the paperwork properly"
It's getting abaurd hahhaha.
I have office with spots. I have a few cars there. But none that need work or would make good content
@plasticstuntmancom I don't think you can get a dealer's license without at least some sort of an office with a few parking spots
You'd have to check with your county because each county and state is different of course

The n52 is bulletproof 100%
And ahh yes the lifter tick. Music to my ears hahahha
I noticed that you don't include title, registration & insurance fees. Are you a licensed dealer? Here in Arizona I have to pay all those fees and can only sell 5 or 6 cars a year without a dealers license. I subbed your channel. I appreciate your high integrity on not ripping people off.
I do have a dealers license yes. Its not too expensive here in Florida!
Great question. I can do 5 per year in Texas. To get the dealer license is a huge pain in the ass.
Also, get married and you can do five more.
So every car/flip you do gets registered and plated before you sell correct?
If you are not a dealer then yes I recommend that. Some people jump titles. It's not legal but many people do it
i don't flip cars but just watching your videos is so informative about cars and etc. i'm definitely subscribing
As a fellow car flipper you definitely go the extra mile. Good job bro.
Thanks brother!!

Just a hint:
Since you do it for a living and might sand cars more often than your average joe I'd recommend using a mask whilst sanding. Last thing you want is crappy health in your mid 40s.

How do u get around the whole license or dealer license once you sale so many cars? You can tell me via email
stoplookinent@gmail.com or you can answer on here. I sold two cars in a year as a gift. Any more then that I would of got audited are you familiar with what I am implying?
@@stoplookinent4791 ask an attorney or a consultant in your state. He will be more familiar with your state’s laws.
@@stoplookinent4791 I know people selling 5 cars at once to upgrade (for personal reasons). 2 is a small number.

Also good advice loiq
Am pressed for Internet Data as am a bit broke to renew my subscription but I just can't stop watching your videos man keep up the good work 👍👍
When you flip a car like this do you transfer the title to you or just leave it in the previous owners name until you sell it?

Great video. I'm a Beamer guy to and very savvy with bmw issues. I only buy the bmw's with the N52 engine. Bullet proof. Very impressed with the painting segment. You can find the 04 to 12s really cheap here in upstate ny. Soon as an engine light comes on owners get scared and dump them and it's usually just a sensor. Keep posting great videos.

Good luck brother!
Cool video, very informative. Two questions. 1. Do you buy these cars under an LLC. and deduct the associated expenses? 2. Was the car originally black, what do you do about the door jambs and other secondary painted areas when repainting?
Thanks for the inspiration, getting ready to try my first flip.
Great questions, I second this!
Some of the best videos I’ve watched on TH-cam
I’m not even a car guy and still found this vid very interesting👍
Haha appreciate it man
I was just like "nah, 2k" but for a weekend or even just a week 2k is a pretty heavy outcome.
9:49 also sick guns.
Im a chick n do 1 - 3 cars a week. Average $1500 - $3000 per car. Lol no one believes me. 🤣
Hey man, just wanted to say that you should look at the time put in the car also. Your time and effort is just as important as how much money you make at the end of the sale. Nice video🙏
When you decided to start flipping cars how much money did you have to start with and what car/truck etc did you happen to buy? Been thinking very seriously of trying my hand at this, been around it my whole childhood life as a kid watching my step dad do it but thats been yrs ago so curious of what your budget was when getting started on your 1st flip is all. Great content as well!!
Dope vid bro. Kind of motivates me to learn more about cars so I can flip a few
Good video and great profit. I'd like to see the total time commitment though....trip to junkyard, priming, painting, locks, etc. That's the part that worries me. You have a great background to do these things but it would take me twice as long lol
Total amount of time invested took about 3 days. Just over a weekend of time invested. If I got a cheap paint job it would have been way quicker!!!
This video was very informational! Highly recommend this video to anyone who's looking to flip their car! I learned a lot from this video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge on how to flip cars @Buddy's DIY!
