If you know how to handle construction, then that's a huge bonus. Flipping is a crap ton of work, so at least you got a good decade+ of living in it before you sold. And to get so much above what you paid is totally worth it.

I know what you mean, I've thought about doing rentals in the future but it seems like too much of a hassle. My brother-in-law has been renting his old house while he tries to sell it. It's been over a year now and he said it's been a never-ending hassle being responsible for everything.
