Built by a flipper, for flippers.

Property has been in my blood for a long time

I grew up in the UK, where we renovated the family's properties — a very different market to Australia. When I moved here I kept at it: we built a house and learned the hard way that a good build doesn't guarantee a good profit. I've been investing and building ever since, most recently renovating an apartment in Palm Beach on the Gold Coast.

Property is one of the real ways everyday Australians can get ahead — but only if you treat it like the numbers game it is.

The one lesson that shaped everything: you win when you buy

Here's what every hard deal taught me. You secure your profit the day you buy — not the day you sell. If you pay too much going in, it's almost impossible to claw a profit back after renovation and selling costs. You'd need to get lucky. Win at the purchase, and the rest of the project has room to breathe.

That principle is baked into everything FlipPro does — every analysis ends with the one number that matters most: the maximum you should pay for this property, for this strategy.

How FlipPro actually came to be

It started with the feasibilities. My wife kept finding properties and asking me to run them. Out came the spreadsheets — again. Eventually I thought: let's just make this simple and build a feasibility calculator. So we did.

Then it grew. Why not use AI to find and vet properties faster — filter the market down to a shortlist worth a proper look? Then: why not a full analysis — read the listing, the property's history, the suburb, the recent sales, the council zoning and regulations, and pull it all together into a report that says whether it's genuinely a good deal and what to pay for it?

Then the projects. We were running several renovations at once — tradie contacts in our phones, quotes buried in email, asking each other where things were up to. So we built that in too: your trusted electricians, plumbers, stonemasons, flooring suppliers and painters in one place, their quotes loaded against your budget, your spend tracked as the project runs — and a private rating on each tradie so your own little black book of reliable people grows with every flip.

Why I think it's different

FlipPro constantly filters the ever-changing Australian property market down to the handful of properties actually worth your time. Whether you're after a quick six-month flip or a two-year subdivision, you can find a property in the suburb you care about and immediately see the opportunity, the strategies that fit, the likely costs, the red flags, and the due-diligence steps you still need to do.

I don't think there's another app on the market that does all of this — and that's because I didn't build it for a market. I built it for me, my wife, and my mates who are into property, doing exactly the things we kept asking for.

My hope is simple: that FlipPro helps you find a great deal, and that when you sell the next property you found with it, it makes you a serious profit.
