I am sure I’m not the only one who’s a huge fan of those TV shows where people buy ruined houses, renovate them and then flip them for massive profits. I always end up saying that I could do that – but the truth is that I don’t have the money, nor the skills for actually making it happen.
Fortunately, with the mobile game House Designer: Fix & Flip I have a chance to feed the ego and do some house flipping myself – even though virtually.
And today I’m here to help you get the most out of it by sharing some House Designer: Fix & Flip cheats and tips with you in a complete strategy guide.
This will help you earn more money quickly, make more profits and be able to afford and purchase the best decorations in the game to make even more profits and have more fun.
So let’s not waste a single second and instead let’s check out below some House Designer: Fix & Flip tips and tricks!
Do the missions over and over again
There’s not a lot of variety at the moment in terms of missions that you can complete in House Designer: Fix & Flip, so you should pick your favorite one and complete it over and over again in order to raise the money you need for your projects.
The first thing you should do whenever you start a mission is to immediately sell every item that’s available there. You won’t make a fortune, but it’s extra money and it all adds up in the end. So why let it go to waste when you can make some extra money?
Next, you should take things methodically and one room at a time. I personally prefer to handle one task at a time – like removing the garbage first and cleaning up afterwards, since this makes everything a bit easier and I don’t have to juggle with the various controls in the game.
And finally, remember that you don’t have to get 100% in order to be able to complete a mission and rack up those profits. If there are some things that you really can’t find (like a hidden stain or garbage item), don’t waste too much time searching for it as you don’t lose a lot of money if you don’t get the 100% on each mission.
Try to also measure how much time you spend in each mission and only do the ones that give you the most income per hour. For example, the starting bar cleaning one is completed very fast so you can do that over and over again instead of Mark Kelly’s house, for example, which takes a lot more time and isn’t as profitable.
Don’t invest too much in your starting house
The Small House is the house you start it and unfortunately, you can’t sell it as it is your home base. Therefore, it makes little sense to invest too much in it, especially early on when the funds are low.
Instead, wait until you have enough money to buy your first house and restore that, then quickly sell it for a profit.
You don’t have to turn it into a luxury mansion – simply cleaning up everything, adding some appliances and a bit of furniture will increase its price greatly. Sell it then to have more funds on hand. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat.
That’s the secret of house flipping – and always wait until you have enough money before taking on a larger house which requires more money to renovate.
Increase your game’s performance
House Designer: Fix & Flip is a massive game that requires some resources, so if you’re trying to play it on an older phone, you might have some trouble getting a good performance and instead get some choppy / laggy gameplay that would make it less enjoyable.
Fortunately, you can improve your game’s performance by going to the game’s settings: simply tap the in-game tablet (where you choose your missions or the shop). From there, deactivate shadows, grass and improved rendering.
If these don’t fix your performance issues with the game, try toying around with the other settings as well.
The texture resolution and the screen resolution can also be tuned down – so take things methodically. Tune the textures down a bit to see what effect that has on the game, then tune down the resolution if you need a bigger increase in performance and so on. You will eventually be able to find the perfect settings for the game to run flawlessly.
Watch videos for extra money
Did you know that you can actually do this? Well, you can and even though you’re only getting $25 per video, it’s better than nothing and a lot faster than going through most of the in-game missions.
In order to be able to do this, you should tap your in-game tablet, then go to the Money tab. At the bottom, you will have this option which will help you quickly make $25. Could come in handy!
This would be it for now. If you have some additional House Designer: Fix & Flip tips and tricks to share, please let us know by commenting below – I am sure fellow flippers will be very grateful.
This isn’t a comment it’s a question in which I can’t find the answer anywhere online and the game doesn’t have a “help” tab or even a “contact us” option.
This is my 1st time playing this and im on the 1st “after party cleaning” mission. I finished living room, kitchen and I’m on the 3rd of 5 rooms, the bathroom. I have 2 remove dirt tasks left and they are in the shower. So, my question is how do I get inside the shower to clean those 2 spots? I tried using my hand to open door knob like opening the room doors but I the shower will not open.
Sell the shower! Click the price gun, point it at shower and it will take it away so you can clean it!
Sell the shower
you could have also just jumped up on the sink and cleaned it from there…thats what i did….
Does anyone know how earn a lot of money very fast? This is my first time playing and I haven’t figured a lot out yet.
I am stuck on the bathroom as well. I can’t get the door open.
I sold the shower! Click on the bottom tool, for price gun and point at the shower and sell it. You will be able to clean it! Lol now I’m stuck at a job where I had to clean after a party. Almost done but says i need to remove one more garbage from living room and there’s literally nothing in it. I even sold the curtains!
I guess it’s the same job as the shower. But says one more garbage and I have nothing!
If you have time then keep checking it will appear soon
How so I fix the walls I tryed all the resources but none of them work?
see if there is hole on the wall, if there is, spackle the wall using spackling paste (found in shop) and spatula (found in tools bar).
if there was no hole on the wall. buy a bucket of paint of your choice and use the paint roller in the tools bar. point the paint roller to the bucket and tap USE to get the paint in to the roller and point the roller to the wall you want to paint and tap USE
Sparkling paste where the paint is!
Where do I find the garage rack with full shelfs I can’t find it anywhere
*4
It’s at the very bottom of the first tab in the shop.
Uhmm so I bought my first house which is 1,000 dollars is like night and I decided to put in sum lights but they don’t look like they’re on someone help
Always add the light switch. Even if some lights come on when you place them and some don’t. Don’t move them over and over again until they do come on. Just by adding the switch, the entire room will then have full working lights.
The furnature in the mission homes doesnt make me anything. Always reads $0?
It’s because it isn’t your furniture to sell, lol. Unlike the furniture in a house you just bought. The missions are in houses that belong to someone else. I ‘sell’ the furniture just to get it out of the way. No one has complained yet. Lol.
same, you said to make money from selling things in missions but everything is $0
Exactly. I have the same issue. I don’t get how it says to sell everything to make money, when all of it is $0.
What are the metal? Pieces on the wall? Can they be removed?
That is where radiator goes. :-)
I have a radiator there but there are 2 pipes next to it. What are they for?
the towel radiator

How?
I cant finish Sparks Family house
“Make a room for firstborn”… I tried making a baby room it didn’t work. Then I tried adding kids furniture and changed the walls and flooring. Help!
There’s a list of things in it. Paint the walls deep blue. Put a crib and colorful children’s rug, blue kids dresser, kids desk, 3 cubes oak bookshelf, the lamp that’s already in the room, I think a carpet or something too
It says ‘Carpet Blue’ but I can’t find it anywhere. Please help!
carpet blue is just below the laminated floors
How do I finish a job I do everything it says but it doesn’t finish so I have to quit
Anyone know how to clean behind the bar in the bar mission? All of the dirt and trash I have left is behind the bar but I can’t figure out how to get there! None of the doors open and I can’t climb over.
You can jump by going forward and pressing the arrow
I have a question too. How do you store paint cans and putty (or get rid of empty paint cans) after you use them. I can only seem to move them around but not delete or put in my inventory?
Never mind. I figured it out.
use the pricegun
WHERE DID YOU GET THE STUFF FOR THAT THOUGH?!?!
I can not find the garage door with 4 shelves !!! Where can i find it????
garage doors dont have shelves. you can find the shelf-4shelves in the furniture tab(were you buy beds, tables, chairs…)
I stood on the sink and cleaned it
How do you hang up curtains it stays on the ground
How do you auction a house?
You have to be in another house, go to realty and click on the house you want to sell. You will then have an option to sell and the price offered.
I always clean the garage at Paul and Daisy’s house. It gives u $850 and u only have to spend around $127 to do the little bit of renovating. (That’s only accurate if u sell back the putty and paint cans after using them before finishing your job.) I was able to buy the mansion after about 2 days of playing this game. I wish there were more options though. I love this game!
Wow, thank you for the information. I’ll try cleaning them up
anyone how to remove the wallpaper ?
You don’t need to remove the wallpaper, just paint over it.
Is there a way to make more money on the missions? You end up spending so much that you only take home a small amount. Some missions hardly seem worth it.
if you only buy the things they want you will spend no money
you are using things not on the task list which is why you are being charged. the task list is at the top left corner. the task list will be different for every room you enter. for the room with no task list and shows 100%, you leave the room undone even if i was filth as pigstay.
use only the things on the task bar and you can bring home the whole mission amount without spending a penny.
Why can’t I change wallpaper on some walls? It says I need blow holes, how do I get them?
I am having the same problem. I place putty but have no idea about how to add holes. Anyone know?
buy the item of filling it is right before the paintings and use the tool of wall fixing in your inventory
and you can always sell the item you bought after you are done for 75% of the buying price
When doing jobs to make money, I always complete all the rooms. I look and make sure every room is 100% complete. For some reason it still says finish work? I can’t find anything else that needs to be done. Can anyone help?
go to the in game tablet, select the work menu and press the complete task button

Can I paint outside of house and if I can, how?????
I would also like to know how
How do you get a pet from outside that you spawned to go into your house?
You can go to the pet bowl and use the “price tool” to sell it. This actually places the pet back into your inventory. Click on the pet paw logo to find your pet. Now, place the pet bowl back into your house. Your pet will spawn right next to it. Keep the doors in your home closed so this time your pet will stay indoors.
