The only Flip I've ever done was supposed to be a Long-Term SFR rental. We got into the thing and ended up gutting it. About $80k later we had a nice house. We found books from the early 1900's. We did pretty well on that one, but I wish I still had it because rents kept going higher where it would have brought in a good return long term.
