    Flipping never entirely disappeared, but that property is not the classic flip. it's a lender owned foreclosure, and the 209,905 price was the auction price. The difference between this one and the typical lender owned foreclosure is that the lender in this case is a hard money lender, not a bank. This particular hard money, among other things, specializes in loaning money to buy foreclosures, or to people who might not qualify for a bank loan,at much higher than average interest rates. They also typically also require much higher than average down payments.
