Help thinking through Rehabbing or Wholesaling on the side

[Luke Lyles]

I will be posting this same post in the Rehabbing Forum Category as well..

I'm looking for some help thinking through some pros and cons of wholesaling vs flipping. Quite frankly I lean more toward flipping because I enjoy the process of seeing something transform (though that may change when doing it for money) and also because of the potential for higher returns. However, I am looking at doing this "part" time for the immediate future and am wondering if there are some advantages to wholesaling that I may not be thinking of - especially as it relates to building a wholesaling business on the side. I'm aware of the potential to get into wholesaling for less money than flips, but I know that wholesaling can be far more difficult than it seems on the surface.
