Strategy: Flip for Cash and then Buy & Hold?

[Saar Kagan]

So I'm wondering if this is a good overall strategy to begin with..

Since I don't have much capital... should I start with a few flips to generate some investment capital and then buy some rental income properties?

Does this approach make sense?  Is flipping a good place to start?

Any help would be appreciated..

btw, I know that this could take years and it's not as simple as I'm presenting it :)  I'm willing to invest the time and effort.

Thanks again!
