What is easier for you - flipping or landlording?
I've never done a flip but intend to one day. I would think landlording is more difficult due to a lot more things involved (neigbors, tenants, etc.

Why limit yourself to just one? I would suggest doing both. Being a landlord can be tough, but you get monthly income and can always hire a property management company to handle the day to day issues. Plus, you can always sell the property in the future. Flipping is also great because you can make a (sometimes large) profit in a short amount of time.
