Lessons learned? Challenges?
Know your exit strategies and have your personal finances in order. I should have completed a cash out refinance and kept this beauty for true wealth generation. I missed opportunities having my cash tied up. While overall the flip was very successful, a good look at my exit options would have improved the return.
