House Flipping Mentorship

(And Why REAP’s Navigator Program Might Be the Perfect Fit)

If you’ve ever thought about flipping houses but felt overwhelmed by the risk, cost, or sheer amount of unknowns—you’re not alone. Most beginners start out asking the same questions:

  • Do I need $50,000 in the bank to flip my first house?

  • What if I don’t know anything about construction?

  • How do I find a good deal before the pros scoop it up?

  • What if I mess up and lose money?

These are real fears—and they’re exactly why a house flipping mentorship program can be the smartest first step. Instead of learning the hard (and expensive) way, you get guidance from people who have already been there, made mistakes, and built repeatable systems for success.

That’s where our Navigator Mentorship Program comes in.

What Is the Navigator Mentorship Program?

Navigator is not just another online course. It’s a done-with-you mentorship program designed to take you from “I think I want to flip houses” to “I just sold my first profitable flip.”

With Navigator, you’ll work directly with two experienced investors—Roy Nicaud and Lanny Necaise—who actively flip houses in East Tennessee and mentor students nationwide. Instead of guessing your way through your first project, you’ll have a roadmap and hands-on support.

What Makes Navigator Different?

  1. Personalized Mentorship
    You won’t get lost in a sea of generic lessons. Navigator is capped at 12 mentees, so every student gets personal attention.

  2. Proven Profit-Sharing Model
    We don’t just charge a fee and walk away. With Navigator, you invest $5,000 upfront, and we partner with you on your first three flips:

    • Flip 1: 75% us / 25% you

    • Flip 2: 50% / 50%

    • Flip 3: 25% us / 75% you

    This structure means we’re as invested in your success as you are.

  3. Step-by-Step Support
    From analyzing deals to hiring contractors to sticking to your budget, you’ll have direct access to mentors who know the process inside and out.

  4. Community
    You’ll join a private group of like-minded flippers who are learning, sharing, and succeeding alongside you.

Who Is This For?

Navigator is perfect if you:

  • Want to flip your first house but don’t know where to start

  • Are nervous about losing money or making costly mistakes

  • Have a full-time job and need a system to manage flipping on the side

  • Value hands-on coaching over cookie-cutter online lessons

Who It’s Not For

  • People chasing “get rich quick” promises

  • Those unwilling to commit time, effort, and resources

  • Tire kickers who aren’t serious about taking action

Why Now Is the Time to Start

The real estate market is always shifting—but well-bought, well-managed flips will always be profitable. The longer you wait, the more deals you’ll watch pass by.

With only 12 mentorship spots available, Navigator is intentionally exclusive. We keep it small so we can give each mentee the guidance they deserve.

Final Thought: You Don’t Have to Flip Alone

Most beginners fail because they try to figure it out on their own. With Navigator, you don’t have to. You’ll have mentors in your corner, systems that work, and a proven path to your first successful flip.

Ready to Apply?

Your first flip doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With Navigator, you’ll have the roadmap, the support, and the partnership to finally make it happen.

But remember — we’re only taking 12 mentees into this program. Once it’s full, that’s it.
