    I had a lot of success flipping new sites but tried to fix an old site then flip.

    Why not start with a new site? (lower cost)

    You can always more on to flipping old sites if this does not work well for you.

    Cheers,

    I always had more profit by buying underpriced established sites and fixing them up and making them look great and adding other value to them, like a Facebook and/or Twitter acct. Not a lot of money in startups with no traffic or revenue once you pay the hefty Flippa fees, if you're going to sell on Flippa. You got a fee for listing, a bold and/or highlight fee, a success fee and blah blah blah.

    There are beginners site as well that sell in flippa.If you can create something really unique or addressing a particular segment and make a right pitch,then there is a good chance of getting a good price for new sites as well.
