It can be more difficult to sell to an owner and you have to have a RMLO (residential mortgage loan originator) on your team to stay in compliance with Dodd-Frank Act.  

With your team's background in construction and interior work, I would say you should look into flipping and if a deal comes along that you don't have the bandwidth for, you have the ability to wholesale it with a good estimate on rehab/renovation costs.There should be an informal BP Meet-Up soon that I would recommend attending, they are a great way to network with other investors in a low-pressure atmosphere.
