Is flipping the best way to start investing for a beginner?

[Matt Scallions]

My wife and I are just getting started writing our business plan for investing. We bought our primary home last year and did a good bit of inprovements ourselves. We enjoyed the process so we are thinking to start out flipping and then, once we have some cash reserves built up, start buying long term rentals. Our goal is to be full time and able to focus on our family in 10 years. Is this a good approach? Anything to consider as we write our plan? Thanks!
