Too much of a damn headache, and the whole idea was to get some money back and pay for your living with the equity and have a nice little chunk in your pocket.. since the downfall, this has been negated for the majority.

For me, I wanted the tax write off. Plus I needed a new place to shoot after business partner's boat accident. So it was kind of a forced thing, and circumstances lining up.
Being single, no kids, no wife means bend over when it comes to taxes.
However, even on my renovations, I am running a good 15-25% over original budget because of things you find (just like on the tv shows). You knock into a wall, and find no insulation. Or you are add in some recess lighting and find you need a new electical box because it's not up to code, and so forth.
