House flipping should probably be banned, though. It's bad for the homeowners who buy the house because it's invariably low-quality contractors who do the work and they invariably don't do it to code. It's bad for the neighborhood because the residents aren't stable.

I'm curious what the alternative is? Houses in bad condition are even worse for the neighborhood
This is a dumb over generalization. People that fix up homes are good for the neighborhood.
