Isn't the more apt to compare this to car restoration/repair or something? Fixing up homes isn't like a factory you can streamline and automate.

Just anecdotal, but the first house I bought had some issues that enabled me buy it at a discount and fix it up over time to my liking. I'm thankful I had that opportunity, and I still would've probably upgraded certain things if the flipper just went with the base options.
