Should I get into house flipping with a USDA loan?

So I was wondering about the benefits of the USDA no down payment loans as a means of getting into house flipping. However, the only allow loans for houses in suburban/rural areas, with a commitment to improving the land. I wanna try and find some deals in the rural areas of New Jersey, any ideas on how to get good deals there?

    USDA loans cannot be used for investment properties. You may be able to pull off a live-in flip, but you'd need to check with USDA on the eligibility for such properties. Investing in rural areas can be difficult so make sure you do your due diligence.
