Flipping is more appealing to me because I enjoy the process of renovating homes.

For example, right now I am renovating a 20-unit apartment complex...we are pulling out a lot of old appliances and I want to donate for the tax write offs.

The owner is an investor that has started to renovate and now wants to sell it - open to seller financing.

Not to mention a deck and some yard work.It doesn’t feel like there is less than $5K worth of work to be done, but then again, I don’t have much experience in estimating repair/renovation costs.

Say you need to do renovations if pressed.

I'm new to investing; my only experience with real estate is buying and renovating my single-family home.

I project 25-30k in quick renovations to make house and both apartments rent ready.

@Erin AumanI have had my ups and downs with buying/renovating/renting property.

Most don't seem very interested in renovations projects.   

I bought the house for $170k using an interest only private loan (I pay $650 in interest per month), and then I put an additional $30k of my own money into renovations.
