How many flips in a year do people complete who also work full time do?

I work full time right now...and just wrapping up my first flip. The rehab will take approx 7 weeks...I did some of the work like painting, demo, landscaping, etc...and then had others do the more skilled work...like laying tile, cabinets, etc. Seems like if I was able to do 4 flips per year while still working that would be quite a bit.

Just wondering on average how many flips others complete while holding down a full time job. Thanks

Replied

Strange as it may seem, part of the reason is that I enjoy it.  I find the progress on rehabs emotionally satisfying.  Back in the days when I was heating my first house with wood I cut on my own land, I felt the same way about the progress of my wood pile.  It is a feeling that for me has never been replicated by watching dollars that could pay for that wood accumulate in a brokerage account.  I'm a romantic, I guess.
