@Landon Sheveland People do fix and flips while living into the property to classify the property as primary residence and not pay any capital gain taxes. if that is your intention, don't use LLC to establish this as your LLC.If your goal is different compared to what I said above, you can use LLC.

I also do consulting from time to time to share how leverage and build a profitable holding company or fix/flip entity.

Investment Info:Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

It wasn’t how I wanted to kick things off, but I worked with a contractor to get the bathroom fixed and functional.Once that was behind me, I focused on improving the building and maximizing income:I installed a shared washer and dryer for the tenants, a major upgrade that added convenience and increased the property’s value.I rented out the two garage parking spaces, bringing in consistent revenue.I also raised rents for the second- and third-floor tenants I inherited to be just below market-rate.

You call out the tenant for not requesting the smart lock be fixed, BUT it sounds like you knew about it!

Quote from @Chris Olandese:  I like this too - it's very definitive which matches my work ethic.

the one that broke even was a fix and flip play that the fix happened but the flip did not work.

@Ana VhanNot sure if my attorney does fix fee for your situation, but she has been amazing.Kaitlyn​​​​ R.

FHA loans only require about 3.5% down, so it’s a great way to start generating passive income while keeping your housing costs low.If you’re leaning towards renting for now, you could still invest by looking at fix and flip properties or even partnering with someone more experienced to get your foot in the door.
