Hello,I was wondering if anyone has participated in the Philadelphia tax foreclosure auction recently and how long it has taken you to receive the deed?

Your equity doesn’t matter in the taxes or decision.

I guess it's just too many factors to consider and it easy to get overwhelmed and cannot get accurate info and estimation when I conduct analysis (ex. property tax rate, insurance, maintenance fee, rent, repair, closing cost, etc.) 

Purchase price: $2,800,000 Cash invested: $560,000 The property is a three-story multi-family residential building with six independent units, initially facing significant challenges due to poor conditions.Renovation Investment Summary:- **Structural Repairs:** $250,000- **Kitchen Modernization:** $100,000- **Bathroom Updates:** $50,000- **Exterior Improvements:** $100,000- **Holding Costs:** $50,000- **Property Taxes:** $30,000- **Insurance Costs:** $10,000- **Management Services:** $10,000

If you are considering renting it for a minimum of 30 days, I believe you will be exempt from any short term rental rules and taxes. 

So the actual tax bill is going to be impossible to predict without looking at the individual owners' personal tax situation.How much of a gain do you think you made on your first flip?

A friend of mine invested in one last year—apartments upstairs, a small coffee shop downstairs - and the combination of income streams made it a steady performer.Scaling with a 1031 Exchange:While not applicable unless you sell a property, planning for a 1031 exchange could help you scale quickly while avoiding capital gains taxes.

I’m talking about getting thorough with expense estimates, factoring in property taxes, insurance, and a cushion for maintenance.

My last Tax Deeded Property returned 233% ROI.

We owe $154k on the property and the interest rate is 4.25%, the monthly mortgage is $1050 with taxes and insurance.
