Anyone experience lifestyle inflation with live in flips?

I buy prehab houses and do minor repairs to them while living in them, renting them out then selling them a few years later (have yet to sell one but that's the plan). I started out with a small, old house in a C area and have gradually bought bigger and better houses to the point where right now I'm living in a 4K square foot mansion, lol. When I now go to my lower end rentals that I used to live in, I find it difficult to stomach moving back in other than the low cost of living compared to where I live now.
