Does it need to be completed before end of the year to use it when I do taxes in April 2025? 

Whether we agree with these items or not, the following are inflationary government policies: stimulus, student debt relief, tariffs, increased child tax credits, limited immigration, and big government deficit spending.

I have done deals such as wholesale deals, Rent to Own, Lease Option, Option deals, Tax Liens, Finding private money all because of some of their videos that helped me understand how to.

We normally meet on the third Monday of the month but that will not be the case in April as that is the Tax filing deadline of April 15th..

We keep good books, have legitimate and good tax returns and can show tangible real income on these units.

The way I'm looking at it, if my spouse and I only do employer matching for the 10 years we would have more than enough in there and still 10 years out from being able to access it.I do plan on doing 401k loans for deals if the numbers check out, and I've considered rolling over some of our 401ks into roth IRAs to access our contributions but we'd have to pay taxes out of pocket (a big hit to cash flow) and we couldn't touch it for 5 years.  

It is better suited to someone who loves Costa Rica and would like a property that they can spend a few months a year at if they would like and still cash flow after all maintenance and utilities and taxes.  

Any way around paying the very high property tax, school tax etc. in SC?  

States like CA, NY, CT, NJ, MD are notorious for high sale price homes, higher taxes and hard to cash flow.

They don't all offer the same servicers (default management, document services, tracking of taxes and insurance, escrows, etc.), but I am with you that communication and competency are key.
