High taxes, a declining population, and an environment that is less than friendly to businesses are important factors to consider.

My business partner does a lot of work for UB property owners and shares some pretty rough stories with me.

I'm looking for advice on a situation with an investment property my business partner and I purchased in June 2024 under our joint LLC in Springfield, OR.

He indicated that they have begun to change their business model now and they no longer sell a property until it has been permitted.  

You must have the Business tax license & pay all the fees required.  

Here are some key takeaways from our experience flipping homes and running a renovation business in San Diego.1.

She is from and still has family in Peoria, IL and her family owns a flooring business, and is well connected in the housing maintenance community in Greater Peoria.

We both have busy W2's and don't have the time right now to do more (which I'd love to do at some point).

Quote from @Adam Macias: Wholesaling as it is today will be a thing of the past.It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it.The more people try wholesaling but then end up not having an end buyer or cancelling contracts or trying weird things like novations, the more all of real estate will be regulated and cause requirements like licensing to be able to transact more than just your personal resident purchase.Which I don't know why hasn't happened sooner.Here's all the states (in red or yellow) requiring a license to wholesale or at least have started the process:Credit: REITipsterI think licensing and regulation is a beautiful thing that should happen if you plan to be an wholesaler and do more than one deal... which is going to be the case for anyone taking this business seriously.Or even it being regulated to need a real estate agent to do more than one deal outside of buying a personal residence.I've had plenty of failed attempts with agents in pursuit of wholesale deals and I know exactly why, it's not because the agent couldn't find me deals, it's just not practical to think there's opportunity for the numbers a wholesaler needs to make a profit on top of everyone else needing to these days.Because the only sellers who truly can sell at a deep enough discount are usually those who ran out of time and just didn't do something sooner with their situation.I know many coaches and gurus will disagree with me but there’s no regulations on youtube gurus and what they teach either.If we look at the current state of the market in hot cities, the availability of online resources to the average homeowner, how many deals can you possibly believe are available at 70% of ARV?

Are you building for pure investment purposes or are you looking to use some of the space for personal/personal business use?
