I did that - renovated a farmhouse in chatham we bought for 175k and turned a 200k profit (or at least cash in hand) which we used for a deposit for a house here in bkln - unfortunately at very peak of market.

I highly recommend this system however, since you get two houses for price of one if you have a decent price on a rental here in NYC and if you buy here you may never be able to afford a second home.
