Flipping can get you money. Holding leads to wealth, in my simple opinion. If you are only flipping then you have to keep flipping. Both can make money. it depends on what you want. I like to see my income produced from assets grow. So I hold more now than I used to.
Check out the recent blog article on staying the course. The author talks about selling to make a chunk vs having 25k a month in income later. Its a good example.

Depends on your time line. Flipping is more money in a shorter time span but over the long term renting will always be more profitable. Also, it always depends on the deal.
I used to really like the idea of flipping but I'm less excited about it these days.
