Buy and Hold for rentals vs Flips

[Herb Mitchell]

With the REO prices on the increase, and wholesale deals harder to find, I am at a point where I need to decide if I had the funds to purchase rental properties vs. flips were the margins are not as good. I am using IRA self directed funds so tax depreciation and capital gains may not fall into my decision. I can probably get a CAP rate of 12-15%. Thanks for any suggestions.
