Suggestion to buy and hold or flip

[Ankan Basak]

So finally I closing on a house in West Philly, 59th street, between Cedar and Baltimore Pk. Can't wait!

Still in two minds about whether to hold/rent or do a flip. I can practically bring in tenants after some quick and basic fixing such as the roof, painting, carpeting and new windows. Or should I go all out and do a flip? I know this is an upcoming area, but how much upside there is if I hold for a few years and then sell?
