I've done the "live in flip" before and it's challenging (my wife and I did it, and it wasn't that much fun LOL).

Often, properties priced at peak season rates can have very low occupancy during the winter.

Quote from @Tom Winter: I'm currently house hacking (renting rooms) my current primary residence which is a single family home and has a mortgage.

Well, we all know real estate investing, especially flipping houses, isn't quite that glamorous.I thought it’d be fun to share some real-life stories and lessons from our flipping adventures.

Regardless not a fun party to work with!

It’s not fun to pay a tax preparer for a blank state return but it could save you big down the road (in penalties and headaches).

This is an unexpected expense on top of a complete renovation plan for the winter.

They can be fun but also time wasters as well I have only personally bought off auction.com 

⭐️Fun Fact - ADT gives new homeowners a certificate of up to 20% off insurance premiums every year also 👍🏽  

Your property appeals to neither a growing family (too small) or the young professional still seeking fun (not within walking).Here is the MILLION DOLLAR question:   If you were buying an investment property, would this be one you would buy.
