First Time Investor Should I Buy and Rent or Flip?

First off this site has been awesome for getting information thanks BP!

I'm new to Real Estate Investing. I've been going back and forth on what I want to do. Early in my career, before I got into IT, I worked for a property management company. Part of me wants to buy a small duplex or something with few units that's easily manageable since I have prior experience. The other part of me wants to get into flipping homes. I purchased my first home in 2012 and have been slowly remolding it with the plan at some point I would sell it so that I can raise money to do another project, or rent it and purchase something else. The market seems to be picking up here in the Dallas area . What advice do you have on what is the best type of investment to start with SFH vs MF? How did you get started and what advice do you have for beginners?
