Can you either rent out your current property if there’s been little/no appreciation, or sell it tax free?

If that's the case, if it's a flipper with zero development experience, no way would I have any interest

In my experience in MO, land bank properties are very low priced (these are generally properties/parcels that weren't sold at the tax auction), but they often have significant tax liens on them that must be cleared in addition to the "sale price" AND they require a significant amount of rehab in order for the properties to be inhabitable. 

Any suggestions, advice, or experience you could give me.

So if you buy a 5 bedroom house and rent the spare 4 bedrooms = you can still sell tax-free under the 121 (you just pay back depreciation) If you buy a duplex and rent 1/2 and live in 1/2.

In my experience, you need to open the llc, then go to IRS.gov and get an EIN number.

Feel free to reach out!  

Thanks, Tiffany Palaskas  In my experience, one of my biggest regrets were selling a great cash flowing property in a college community.

I have 10 years of construction experience and my partner does as well.
