@Niki White Congrats on the live in flip! My wife and I have completed 3 so far. Sold the first, held the second as a rental and still live in the 3rd one. We did sort of a hybrid live-in flip/BRRRR type deal. Bought it at a discount, fully renovated it, refinanced and pulled most of our reno money back out and left 20% equity in it to avoid PMI. Looking at pulling a HELOC on it, just in case we need access to the equity. We plan to stay here while we transition into traditional flips but will likely sell/rent depending on the market when we find our forever home. Anyways, just wanted to share they hybrid model as an idea for you as you look for your next home! Good luck!
