And most DSCR Lenders still are limited at a maximum of four units and don’t carry this option.11+ Units: For investors that are looking at multifamily investment properties with 11 units or more – then the loan options are going to look very different than the two other buckets (2-4 units or 5-10).

@Spencer Speckles,  there are additional complications if you try to carry back a note while performing a 1031 exchange. 

If you flip to rent you will go more durable on finishings than you would to sell so you want to decide on that, but when you are done, you can see where you are at for sale vs. rent and decide, you would just have to move to traditional loan to carry it if you rent.

then you go to refinance - and you need to pay back the HM loan + the HELOC + cover all the carrying costs and interest.

@Kent SmithYour CPA is wrong - you can deduct operating expenses against rental income to get to zero.If you have a net loss after this, that loss is NOT deductible and will be carried forward.Review Schedule E and it will clarify how this all works.Schedule E go to IRS site and take a look and also review instructions.Good luck.Arm

This can reduce your taxable income for the year.Carrying Forward Unused Losses: If your total capital losses exceed your total capital gains plus the allowable deduction against other income (currently up to $3,000 for individuals or $6,000 for married couples filing jointly), you can carry forward the unused portion of your capital losses to future tax years.Regarding your question about deferring capital losses into 2023 and using them to offset capital gains in that year, yes, you can typically carry forward unused capital losses from previous years and use them in future years, even if you had capital gains in those previous years.So, if you choose not to use all of your capital losses from 2022 to offset your income in that year, you can carry forward the remaining losses to 2023 and use them to offset capital gains you expect to have in that year.

While we do not see income from these properties and are not managing them we do have a significant amount of depreciation and losses that have been assigned to us and carried over from the past couple years.I am invested in some growth/equity focused projects already and am specifically looking in reliable income focused strategies that are tax efficient provided the losses I have from my family.

When you deal in good faith you need to consider the financial size of a transaction, it needs to be reasonable, and what is customarily given, otherwise  you're just barking trying to finagle a contract that you can't carry through with yourself as you agreed to do.

@Mike Leybourne What time of insurance do you carry for your room rental business?
