I'm not sure where you are located or what other flips in the area look like, but cutting costs/corners in kitchens and bathrooms usually means lower profits.

We are looking for the elusive flip house in my area, the classic 3/2 block house with high enough comps surrounding to support the 25-30% target profit. 

This is why you need to build in adequate margin of safety by being conservative and always assuming the worst.

I suggest long distance: easy and profitable.

Do you think there is any way for the bank to take a low ball offer and I could flip it for a good profit? 

Not sure that 30% profit is realistic.

I remember reading a book several years ago about an investor who specialized in this  (it could have been this one: "Swapping Real Estate for Fun and Profit"), but I need something a little more specific. 

My net profit would be equity + monthly "spendable" cash to spend or use/save towards another home.   

I would do what Henri suggests above and this is a really good time to clear out any marginal performers, the market is high now and poor performers will follow the market down faster and deeper when that happens.
