Backflip

Backflip is a proptech and fintech company founded in 2020 that operates a platform for fix and flip real estate investing. The company connects real estate entrepreneurs with capital through hard money lending, and pairs that lending with free deal-analysis tools. Its stated aim is to modernise residential real estate investing by linking entrepreneurs to sophisticated capital.

The firm's technology work spans fintech and proptech engineering, data and comparables (comps) analytics, and web and mobile platform development. Its products include fix and flip loans for investors renovating and reselling residential properties, DSCR rental loans, home equity loans, and new construction financing. The Backflip web platform and mobile app let investors analyse deals, pull comparables, run numbers and fund deals in one place.

By scale, Backflip reports more than $390m in loans funded across more than 44 states in the United States. Beyond lending, the company positions itself around investor-friendly terms - fast, flexible capital without upfront lender fees - and around housing stock rejuvenation, arguing that its financing helps investors improve local communities. It takes an explicit stance against predatory lending and against what it describes as outdated systems and a lack of available funds for entrepreneurs.
