You also will definitely have to factor in remod costs, almost every building up for sale is around 80-120 years old, lead paint, old furnaces, old doors etc etc. 

You could also consider short-term or furnished rental if you so choose, that would give you back the highest return.

I have a buy and hold strategy and have left over materials like paint and laminate flooring.
