Investing vs. Living. Opinions Welcome!

Hey BP. Different post than I would normally write however I have been flipping around different ideas for my next move and wanted to get some opinions of others. 

To keep this short for now here's the scenario. 

Been investing since 2015. Duplex, Single family, landlord, property manager, always had roommates/tenants. Both properties expected to close in the next 10-20 days. 

I want to live on my own for a year or two, but having a hard time buying just for myself. My first thought, single family that needs rehab that I can do myself (I enjoy that work and have done plenty, outside major foundation/plumbing electric etc.) I'd be able to live alone, continue to build my rehab skills/knowledge. Refinance/Rent/Sell in a year or two depending on market. So it's like a combo of BRRRR/Buy&Hold/Flip etc!

Who else has been in this position and how did you come to a conclusion

All opinions are welcome and would be happy to provide more info if needed.

Thanks!
