To use these templates, simply copy and paste your favorite prompt into your community platform. Post regularly, ideally once or twice a week, to keep the guessing game momentum going. Encourage members to reply with their guesses and respond to their answers to build rapport. You can reveal the correct answer later in the thread or in a follow-up post for maximum engagement.
Since these templates work across all platforms, keep your posts concise and visually clean. Use relevant hashtags, images, or emojis to increase visibility. On platforms with polls, consider turning some questions into quick poll options. Always reply to member guesses to keep the conversation lively.
You can create Guessing Games that challenge members to guess the renovation costs for before-and-after photos or specific rooms (e.g., 'Guess how much it cost to redo this kitchen?'). This sparks discussion around budgeting, cost overruns, and regional price differencesβcore topics in flipping real estate.
Try posting Guessing Games where members estimate the ARV (After Repair Value) of properties in your target market, or guess the time on market for flips in different neighborhoods. This not only drives engagement but also helps members stay sharp on local comps and market shifts.
Absolutely! For example, you might post a photo of a property and ask members to guess hidden issues or which repairs ended up costing the most. This fosters discussion about due diligence, inspection strategies, and learning from past flipping mistakes.
Focus on features that impact flip profitability, like layout changes, permits, or unique upgrades (e.g., 'Guess if adding this open-concept kitchen increased or decreased the resale value'). Highlighting these aspects keeps content relevant for all experience levels.
Use anonymized or composite deals, blur addresses, and avoid sharing confidential figures until after the game closes. Present scenarios as educational rather than exact case studies to protect your business while still offering valuable insights.
Encourage a collaborative tone by sharing the actual numbers after the guessing period and inviting members to share their reasoning. Use disagreements as learning opportunities to discuss how variables like neighborhood, finishes, and contractor choice influence outcomes in real estate flipping.
