Home flips are generating more profit but on fewer properties, according to Toorak Capital Partners. The investors, Beacham said, just have to be pickier.

Flippers have to be more mindful of the slowdown in home price appreciation, or home price declines, too. To be sure, some of the risks for flippers have eased, according to Beacham.
