The most important thing for you to learn as a wholesaler is repair costs.

If you have vacancy or in need of a large repair, will you have the cash to also manage that? 

Common deductible expenses include mortgage interest, property management fees, repairs, and even travel expenses related to property management.

The property is livable, but I am account for a pretty significant turn in 4 - 7 years of paint, flooring, and any miscellaneous repairs that the inspector could have missed since it was occupied.

The buyer got an affordable home in exchange for doing the repairs himself (sweat equity), I got a cashflowing note, and my private lender got a steady interest payment.

.- This will allow low down payment and the 203(k) allows repairs to be financed into the purchase mortgage.- The 203(k) will allow you to bid on properties that need repairs that won't qualify for a traditional mortgage => less competition => better purchase price.You will need to find a great local contractor you can trust to supply the required bids to qualify for the 203(k).- After closing, you can do some of the work yourself to save money, but the program doesn't allow you to pay yourself.You will want to buy a Class B property, maybe Class C+, in an area that seems to be improving.

  (2) Variable cost: platform fees from Airbnb and VRBO, lodging/hotel/transit or whatever pass-through tax your local AHJ requires, cleaning fee, cost of replacement for consumables, repair and maintenance, etc. 

Got into the home with a low down payment , made repairs, rented and refinanced to pay off line and eliminate the PMI.

However, the biggest con is that you are sacrificing a bit of your privacy by living right by your tenants and it is usually a lot more stressful since everything is your responsibility - managing tenant issues, handyman repairs, taking care of the lawn, etc.I would strongly recommend house hacking especially in the Columbus Ohio market!
