Hello, I am new to this forum.

I am interested in fast cash turnaround, and I thought house flipping, buy-upgrade-sell, might be a good idea.
A typical scenario would be to buy a home for say $200,000, light upgrade costs around $30,000, then sell within 2-3 months for around $280,000.

I have some basic questions:

(1) Is there a market for flipping homes in Texas -- if so any particular hotspots?
(2) Are lenders willing to loan for flipping?
(3) How do you identify homes at the right price -- who do you go to?
(4) What are the best strategies, pitfalls, threats?

Any advice on this topic is welcome.
