I suspect that if you call the house flipping number someone will try to sell you a course or seminar, not loan you money.

  My point was that I'm seeing signals that we're repeating history. Why do these home flipping courses pop up? You think they just come out of thin air? No. It means that there are market conditions that would allow an entrepreneur to sell their information. What do we know about the pre-crash market in association with these signals? We know that (1) these things sound like a get rich quick scheme and (2) that they legitimately were a get rich quick scheme, because they actually worked up until the crash where many people were left holding the bags (houses that could no longer be flipped given the post-crash market conditions).
