The IRS provides RE investors many options to minimize taxes.  

I have never once thought about trying to somehow make the final price higher to make a few bucks more, that's completely out of left field to me... the difference is going to be so minimal in the grand scheme of things, I hope nobody is really that dumb to try that.

Specifically looking for a cross-border accountant, and legal counsel to ensure I get the right paperwork sorted to minimize double taxation, and related cross-border issues.Any other Canadian investors have experience with this, or accountants here who specialize in supporting with this?

Or for minimal work, drill small holes near the pipe and spray foam insulation.

I have a property ideal for conversion into a triplex with minimal renovation required.

House hacking a duplex or fourplex can be a fantastic way to start building wealth through real estate while minimizing your housing expenses.To invest in real estate, define your investment goals, research potential markets, network with local investors, analyze properties, consider financing options, and perform due diligence.

It’s a best guess for everyone.I don’t know anyone right now who is saying “I can’t wait for more inventory as I am flush in cash and am ready to buy more real estate if prices rise”.With very low inventory, there will probably be minimal movement on housing while we stay in a stalemate

FINAL NUMBERS:- Projected Costs: $380k ($357k in build cost & $23k in soft costs)- Actual Costs: $389k ($369k in build cost $20k in soft costs)Note: We had very minimal carrying costs because we utilized a CA HELOC with Premier Valley Bank that had a 2.99% introductory interest rate.- Projected Finished Value: $750k- Actual Finish Value: I think between $800-$850k, not sure yet.

Hi wholesalers - I would love to get a template that you have successfully (and of course legally) used to close wholesale deals in MD.I have a template with assignment clause that I downloaded from real estate skills.com which seems like a great website but I'd love to see one that has been used in practice and has clear clauses about 1)EMD and clear backout periods for seller, wholesaler and buyer that minimizes risk for each while still being a 'defacto' contract 2)assignment clauses.

Thanks again for all the help.You didn't indicate your reasoning for OOS investing, below are the reasons why and where most investors target.CF, almost no Appreciation, meet the 1% rule - Mid-western statesNone to minimal CF, mid to high appreciation - TX, FL, TN, CO, IDHope this helps..
