Flipping to Buy and Hold

Mark Skaff

I'm interested in buying a small apartment complex (5-15 units) for the cash flow. To save up the money from my day job would take a while before I can make a down payment on investment that size.

I'm juggling the idea around of getting my real estate license and flipping some houses to grow my capital to a point where I can put a down payment on a small apartment complex.

Would anyone suggest against this? or is this a good strategy?

Thanks in advance!
