NA N. Minimizing taxes paid on your Rehab/fliping business
7 September 2012 | 14 replies
If you flip 5 properties and keep 5 properties as rentals in a given year, the 5 flipped properties will get taxed as business income (and be subjected to SET) and the 5 rentals will be classified as capital assets and will get taxed as such.That said, I believe that if there are properties where the IRS can't really determine if they are intended to be flips or rentals (intent does matter in this case), then the IRS can look at previous patterns by the taxpayer and make a general classification of "Dealer" to determine that all properties fit that criteria.But, if you segregate your properties properly (flips from one or more business entities and rentals from other business entities), you should be able to treat some properties as inventory (dealing) and some as rentals (capital assets).I'm not a tax professional, but that's how I understand it.
