I had 2 offers the first day we listed it for sale.I still buy the lower priced ones and rehab them but then I hold them as rentals.Sort of a rule of thumb for me is anything under $100k = rental above $100k is a potential flip.It's a bit of a slippery slope though because I avoid higher end homes which would be $400k+ in our market because they are harder to sell and I don't want to get stuck with one in a downturn.

Most of the time any deal that you have done before building a buyers list needs to be a great deal!
