The beginning stages
Hey BP community,
I'm just starting out on this REI journey and I had a few questions. I'm meeting with my CPA today to go over some things. One of the questions I have is, In California, when we close on a deal whether it's a fix and flip or wholesale flip, what percentage is safe to hold our for taxes?
What are some other important questions I need to ask him before moving forward?
Thanks so much.
