@Kevin Duke Since Subject A’s $6M net worth is below the federal estate tax exemption ($13.61M in 2024) and Florida has no estate or inheritance tax, Subject B can inherit the property tax-free with a step-up in basis to the fair market value at the time of death, eliminating capital gains tax if sold immediately.To avoid probate, Subject A can use a Lady Bird Deed (Enhanced Life Estate Deed) or a Transfer on Death (TOD) Deed, which allows automatic transfer to Subject B while retaining full control during their lifetime.

The strategy may change, but every market can work.

This deal was brought us off-market by a friend.

If you are doing unpermitted work, it’s either too small a project or you probably don’t want to spend the money.So the market for such inspectors is probably small. 

With that said Phoenix had one of the highest home price declines in the last market down turn.  

Youtube also has a lot of wholesaling videos with examples of contracts, marketing etc.

Very interested in the Cleveland/Ohio market in addition to a few other cross-border cities closer to Toronto. 

Prior to viewing with clients, I am usually have an idea of the general area, vacany rates, market rents, and property types that suitable for LTR.

Pushing into other, close-by, markets is the best (and maybe only) way to make it work.

Then house hack a 4 plex to start I am sure you can get into one of those in that market which is lower priced than 90% of the US.
