If you are in a red hot market, and if you are very resourceful, YES. Price is pushing it for a flip for sure. But in red hot markets, it would work, IF you have the time/tools/aptitude/pile of parts to do the rehab yourself. While Auchen's list appears daunting, I usually do that list for $40, depending on tire choice (nicer tires can cost $40 a set or more by themselves).
Pay someone to do the work, pay retail for parts and supplies, and even in a red hot market, no way.
