@Hao Dinh Hey there Hao. When it comes to estimating taxes it obviously depends on the state and your tax bracket primarily since flips are treated as an exchanging of inventories - like selling a newspaper almost - so for that reason its hard to give a specific number... In general I would say 28-25% is a comfortable estimate, and if it ends up costing you less then you can simply think of it as a pleasant surprise, and perhaps re-baseline your estimate using the local actual numbers you've accumulated! Hope that helps.
