help!!! newbie with mistakes already.

[N/A N/A]

hello everyone! im newbie and learning so much. everyone here is great with the sharing of knowledge. i hope to contribute some in the near future.

i am 21 and purchased my first property at 19. i quit claimed the property to my mom and partner [the person i bought it from got it from the sheriff's sale]. the property was a great deal in 2004, $30K and properties on the block are now selling above $95K. The property I bought was a distressed property on a redeveloping block, but anyways, my question is this::: My partner and I finally finished renovating and plan to flip it in summer 2006.

1. What's the capital gains situation looking like for me? My mother owns a home and continues to live in it 5+ years. My partner does not own a home.

2. Should I quitclaim the property from my mom & partner into an LLC to avoid whatever is to come in the future?

i should probably advise an accountant but i want insight from the pros first. thank you in advance for those who responds
:D
