With our previous speed enhancement our focus was on improving the load times of the Repair Estimator, Investment Report & Accounting Reports which worked like a charm & improved speeds by nearly 10x 💪

...But our Project Budgeter was still loading exhaustively slow, so we went back and used the same magic to help our Project Budgeter load 10x faster than before!

We had received feedback that users were being 'timed out' while working on detailed tools like the Estimator or Project Scheduler.

Previously, our app time out was scheduled to time out after 2 hours, but now we've extended the time out to 48 hours which should hopefully give you plenty of time to input your Estimate data and Schedule data without being booted from the software.

We just launched some new speed enhancements which should make FlipperForce faster than ever!

Our Rehab Estimator templates hold A LOT of data.

Each template has over 35 Categories (Roofing, Siding, Painting, Cabinetry, etc), and a pricing database of over 700 common repair items. Not to mention our Estimator stores pages, upon pages of SOW notes that you can use to get bids from your Contractors.

All of this data connects and feeds to different tools and reports throughout the software which was causing various pages to load unbearably slow.

For the past few weeks we've been working behind the scenes to restructure our database and re-evaluatie the way our pages were calling data.

And we are happy to report with our new speed update pages are loading 10x faster!

Previously, it would take around 20 to 25 seconds to load various pages. Now those pages are loading in 2 to 3 seconds! That's a 10x improvement on speed!

Don't believe me?

Here's a video of me testing driving FlipperForce with our new speed enhancements:

We just launched our new Zillow Data API that automatically pulls in property data for new projects.

The next time you login and add a new house flip project to your account, you should notice on the property details page that a large portion of the property information loads automatically.

Previously you had to enter all of this data manually, but now with the new Zillow data API the property square footage, # of beds & baths ,lot size, year built, school district, high school, middle school & elementary school information automatically loads into the software.

​This will hopefully help save you a few minutes of research and data entry whenever you create a new project.

We've spent the last few weeks collecting user feedback which has been used make a few enhancements, clean up a few items and squash a few pesky bugs in our house flipping software.

Here's what we've been working on:

It's finally here!

We just launched our brand new Schedule Templating functionality that allows you to load Schedule Starter Templates and save your own custom templates that you can use on future projects! 🎉

In the past, creating a detailed project schedule took nearly an hour to create, but with our new Schedule Templating you can load a project schedule in seconds! ⌚

Our Project Scheduler now includes 3 Starter Templates that you can use to help you get started:

These schedule Starter Templates include a detailed list of major rehab tasks and milestones, as well as approximate durations, dependencies & connections.

Once you load in a Schedule Starter Template you can customize the task descriptions, order of operations and durations as needed for your specific project.

Flipping houses is a very repeatable process, so once you customize your schedule you can save it as a template that can be reused on future projects!

I have been working on developing videos, case studies, interactive tutorials and FAQ lists to help you learn all of the powerful tools and features of our house flipping software.

We recently added a new 'User Guides' button which can be used as reference to watch video tutorials and launch interactive tutorials to help you learn the software at your own pace.

As always if you ever have any questions you can always shoot us a message in chat or send us an email.

With our latest round of updates to the Project Scheduler you can now print your Project Schedules to a PDF document! 🖨

Printing your Project Schedules to PDF will allow you to easily share your schedules with your Contractors via email.

You can also print off a hard copy of your project schedule 🖨 and post it on site so all Contractors will know when their expected start dates and completion dates are due for each task on the project.

​This will help with project coordination and scheduling to ensure you and your Contractors are all on the same page so you can finish your rehab project on-time and on-budget!

‍

Hey Flippers,

The next time you login you should see our new update to the Project Scheduler which re-built the user interface of our Project Scheduler, and added in new functionality for Auto Scheduling, Critical Path, Milestones, Hiding Weekends & Print to PDF!

Next we will be adding Schedule Templating which will include Schedule Starter Templates and allow you to save your own templates!

​

Here's a quick preview of the new Scheduler functionality:

We just launched some new functionality to our Scope of Work Report that allows you to export your SOW to Microsoft Word so you can make additional customizations as necessary for your rehab projects!
