English term or phrase: flipping
Esta es la definición de flipping. Yo entiendo lo que quiere decir pero no encuentro un término adecuado para darle una traducción.
Flipping occurs when a “flipper” targets a first time home buyer who believes he or she cannot afford a house or has bad credit. The “flipper” earns your trust by using his knowledge and experience with the home buying process to make the deal seem easy. The “flipper” promises to arrange a loan, take care of all the paperwork, and may even let you move right in before the sale. What you do not know is that the “flipper” bought the house cheap, made only cosmetic repairs, and is now selling it to you for a price that far exceeds its value. You now have a mortgage loan for the inflated sales price. The “flipper” walks away from the deal with all the loan money, but you wind up with a house that is not worth what you owe
