    I agree.  What is the timing you use?  I have my own, and I'm always interested to hear variations of what I do.

    Benefits: 

    * Get cash flow during the holding period

    * Take a depreciation write-off

    * Avoid taxes via 1031 exchange

    Unless you're doing a huge volume of flips, definitely makes sense to buy flips that you wouldn't mind holding as rentals for 1 year so you have multiple exit paths!
