ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of Fund Flip Repeat, Ryan sits down with Oklahoma investor and property manager Corey Scarpa to talk about what real estate looks like when you've seen both sides of the business: what sells fast and what actually holds up over time.
Corey started investing at just 18 years old by renting out rooms in a house next door to his dad. Today, he manages around 140 doors, helps investors buy and sell, flips properties, and works closely with the Tulsa real estate community.
The conversation covers everything from tenant screening and CapEx to contractor red flags, project management, and why understanding a neighborhood can make or break a deal.
One of Corey's biggest takeaways: flipping teaches you what sells on day one, but property management teaches you what lasts through year three.
