Then, in April last year, my husband and I started a business, and I temporarily put both of those on hold while taking care of my dad.

The AC is old, but I’m planning on holding off on replacing it.

Unfortunately we've had a very cold winter here, with temps holding below freezing for weeks at a time so many of us are seeing high heating bills in general.

Investors buying land to HOLD for either speculation or future development can just wait until the wholesaler’s contract with the seller expires and eliminate the wholesaler “markup”.  

The contractors who do work for me have zero issues with me sourcing the material if disclosed up front and not holding them accountable for any material issues.  

There's actually some deeper nuance here than just the holding period. 

Implement scalable systems and processes to effectively manage and grow your real estate holdings.

Seems to me if you hold the taxes the lien holder at some point will need to pay you in order to preserve their rights to the property.

The larger the purchase price the greater the spread you need between purchase price plus holding costs plus rehab cost and ARV.  40k projected profit on a 600k project is too skinny for me.
