Disappointed they put the septic tank relatively close to the house, even though the lot is over an acre.Neither Suncoast nor SI disclosed they were building other homes and marketing them for rent at the same time -- at a lower rate.I went under contract to buy a home in Ocala from SI in Summer 2018.

Markets with disproportionately high new construction, like Austin, TX, will see rent growth pace behind inflation or even (again) fall slightly on average.

Cleveland, Ohio is a great market to focus on for cash flow and specific pockets have gone up 2x and upwards of 4x in the last 5-10 years even!

You can read a book and multiple books, but unless you are out there doing it (I.e. getting bids and getting contractors to truly get you an exact estimate) you will be far off from the numbers you want and may even lose money on the flip/rehab.The best advice I would suggest in my experience is that you should get into the line of work by either partnering with someone or working with someone on some projects prior to going into a flip on your own.

In rental income it break even with selling instead?  

Each potential buyer has come to their own conclusion that it would be too much hassle and risk to manage in this fashion vs a traditional rental even though the average cap rate in our area has been half that at best.
