A corporation is not necessary for flips. It will be to your advantage to incorporate, mainly for taxes (see Bronchick’s articles).
My opinion, for what it’s worth, is that the typical seller would rather deal with an individual than a corporation. I intentionally tone-down my answering machine message to make it seem that I’m not a savvy investor ready to take advantage of the seller.

Hello Jackie,
I just got back to learning. I have been away for awhile (way too many excuses) and am going to make this work. I read your article and am wondering if it is possible to get a copy of your contract. I have your 10 steps posted and I want to put it into action prior to the convention. I plan on doing three flips prior to going to the convention.
I also wanted to say thanks for the straight forwardness of your posts.
Terry
I think the steps in both the 10 steps and the
article are fairly clear, bu I still have a question.
If one is contemplating getting started by doing flips
and/or assignment, is any form of corporation necessary
in either case? I am not intending to debate the various forms, but just from the standpoint of risk,
not taxes or anything, isn’t this fairly minimal?
However, esp. with out of town owners, I would suppose some business name would be of help, and also for cards.
