Wholesaling is already low yield strategy so the goal is to decrease the time, money, and effort put into each deal.Go back to your buyers and get all this information FIRST before you do any more shopping for potential deals, so you can avoid wasting any more marketing dollars (and time and effort) on potential deals that will never get bought.

At that point you would have three items 1) your adjusted basis 2) your depreciation recapture (25% tax IIRC) 3) your gain (taxed at 15-20% IIRC).Your basis throughout the years will change as you decrease it by taking depreciation, and increase it when you perform improvements which will then be depreciated.

Your cash flow is perfect the way it is, and having any debt on it decreases it much too much.
