While Your Competition Checks Email, Your AI Is Closing Deals
AI automation is transforming house flipping businesses by handling 80% of operations so investors can focus on finding deals and managing projects. I've made over $100,000 in additional profits by implementing strategic AI tools that ensure no opportunity slips through the cracks.
• AI receptionist answers every call within two rings, 24/7, qualifying sellers and booking appointments
• AI outbound caller contacts website leads within 60 seconds, building rapport while competitors are still checking email
• Personal AI assistant manages calendar and email according to my preferences and priorities
• AI deal analysis tools process property information to deliver financial breakdowns in minutes instead of hours
• AI proposal creation turns dictated offer terms into professional purchase agreements while I'm driving between properties
• Starting small is key—begin with one AI tool for your biggest time drain, then add more once it's running smoothly
Text me for help implementing these AI strategies in your business. While profitable flipping isn't about working harder, it's about working smarter.

When someone fills out my website form, my AI outbound caller, maggie, calls them back within 60 seconds 60 seconds While my competition is still checking their email. I'm already building rapport. Ever sat in your car scrolling through Zillow and thought, man, if I just knew where to start, I could flip one of these. Yeah, we've been there too. Most people who want to flip houses never even start, not because they're lazy, but because they don't have the blueprint. Well, that changes today. If you give us five minutes, we'll give you real-world flipping strategies that actually work. No fluff, no theories, no gatekeeping, just real how-to information for you to apply today. Three missed calls while I was walking a property 27 unread emails. By lunch, a contractor asking if we're still on for Thursday's walkthrough except, I had no idea what he was talking about. Sound familiar? Here's the brutal truth. If you're drowning in the day-to-day chaos of flipping, you're not building a business. You're buying yourself the world's most stressful job Before we get started. Jess is traveling for the next couple of weeks, so I'm back to a solo act for the time being. Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I use AI to handle 80% of my business operations so I can focus on what actually makes money finding deals and managing projects. This isn't some tech fantasy. It's happening right now in my business. Here's what most flippers get wrong about AI they think it's complicated to use. It's not. I started with one simple automation and we built from there. First, my AI receptionist, katie. Every call gets answered in two rings, even at 9 pm. She knows our company policies. She knows our buying process. She knows not to give advice. She books appointments, qualifies sellers, scores the lead and immediately texts me the hot leads. She knows everything about my company and she always gives callers the answers. I would give them if I was answering the call, but I don't. And here's where it gets really interesting. When someone fills out my website form, my AI outbound caller, maggie, calls them back within 60 seconds 60 seconds While my competition is still checking their email. I'm already building rapport. Last month alone, this caught three deals that would have gone cold Value. I haven't missed a deal due to a missed call. In six months, in fact, we've closed at least four deals to the tune of more than $100,000 in net profits.
Ed Mathews:Because of our AI tools. My personal AI assistant, patricia, manages my entire calendar and email. She knows I don't take meetings before 9 am, that I block Fridays for site visits and that anything marked urgent from contractors goes straight to my cell phone. She even drafts my initial responses to seller inquiries using language that sounds exactly like me the game changer, ai deal analysis. I upload property photos, comps, as well as repair and upgrade requirements. Within minutes I get back a complete financial breakdown ARV repair costs, profit margins, even suggested offer prices. What used to take me two hours now takes two minutes. Here's my favorite AI proposal creation. I dictate my offer terms while driving between properties. By the time I'm parked there's a professional purchase agreement waiting in my email drafts folder, customized for that specific deal, and waiting for my approval.
Ed Mathews:The secret isn't using every AI tool out there. It's identifying your biggest time drains first. For me, it was phone calls, follow-ups and paperwork. Pick one area where you're constantly behind. Automate it. Then move to the next. Start small. Get an AI phone system this week. Once that's running smoothly, add email management. Then deal analysis. Build your AI team one piece at a time. If you'd like my help or advice, text me. My contact info is always in the show notes.
Ed Mathews:Bottom line AI isn't replacing your judgment. It's amplifying your efficiency. It's a force multiplier. While you're sleeping, your AI is answering calls, following up on leads and organizing your next day. That's how you scale beyond yourself.
