Every flip I have ever done has turned into a rental just to break even because I could not finish fast enough, over improved, and could not find good subs...or general contractors to do much of the work so I had to do a lot myself (outside my normal work hours). With a mortgage, electricity and water on, etc....4 or 5 months eats a lot of money...and if you want more than a wholesale price, it takes months and realty fees to sell.

On the bright side, rentals have worked out reasonably well over time for me Just glad I didn't have any partners.
