8 . The Fleeca Job ($201,250-$250,250)

The Fleeca Job is the first heist you get access to after you buy a high-end apartment. The job is to rob the Fleeca Bank in Banham Canyon. You can do the heist with one other player.

6 . Series A Funding ($353,000-$853,000)

This heist is given to you by good old Trevor Philips although it is not a heist in the real sense.

5 . Humane Labs Raid ($472,000-$1,181,500)

So, essentially, you’ll be spending a lot of time doing this. First and foremost, you’ll need a Facility to start this Heist. The prep and setup missions also take place in Freemode if you don’t intend to buy most of the stuff so you’ll have to be careful as other players can cause a lot of problems. This heist also gives you overall a lot of money and freedom than any other heist on this list.

The Diamond Casino Heist is comparatively the most profitable one in the game. Players can make more than $3.6 million in total when doing the heist. But, it doesn’t come easily as you’ll have to do the prep and setup missions in free mode. So, other players are a liability here. But, if you want to do a heist similar to the one in Ocean’s Eleven then this is it. Although you’ll need to buy an Arcade at first to even initiate the heist.
