@Jacob HavlovickBigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Think of it like buying an existing performing business.

RE is really a small business and the number 1 reason that small business's fail is lack of proper capitalization..

You're running a business and want to just make money.

Investors might want to start exploring smaller cities or less-saturated markets poised for population and business growth.

Hey Patrick, You can easily do a 1st mortgage refinance or 2nd HELOAN DSCR Cash out while keeping title to your property held in an S-Corp.

Spend more than half of your total working hours in an RE business in which you materially participate.2.

It is a lot of work to build property (more than fix and flip) so prepare to be busy.  

- If the 5% do say they'll sell a must in this business they have to also agree to MOVE OUT PRIOR TO YOUR CLOSING DATE. 

Regarding finding discounted deals......That is the reason why I started a wholesaling business.
