I was made aware this weekend by one of the investors on our Facebook group that Marco Santarelli on June 18th, 2024, held a "web seminar" again soliciting investors.

You can exclude all appreciation on the original capital gains investment when you exchange or sell a property in an opportunity zone if you held it for more than 10 years.You are able to permanently exclude 10% of deferred gains from capital gains tax as long as you hold the property for at least 5 years and 15% if held for 7 years.Deferral of recognizing capital gains after the sale of a capital asset as long as the capital gains are invested in a QOF within 180 days of the property disposition.

Turn-key would likely be the smoothest, but I am open to a fixer upper if the numbers work.As far as the unique funding, I am an equities investor with accounts held in trust and therefore my taxed income is quite low which limits my options unless I opt for a portfolio loan or separate entirely through a DSCR loan.

In this case is doesn't matter how the owners held title...

As long as they were being held and use for investment when you sell  othem.If you 1031 from A to B and then later convert B to your primary residence.   

If you ever held a leaf blower into a burn pile you get a sense of what oxygen does to a fire.

We bought couches from Lazyboy that have held up really well and I expect they will last many more years.Some Amazon stuff is good, read the reviews. 

Instead, it is held in an escrow account that you take draws from as you complete work.

There are many other plan sponsors out there who are willing to be held accountable for delivering on their projections without whining about unexpected roadblocks and delays  - that they should have anticipated had they done their homework.   

Regrettably, after eight protracted months, my case was converted to Chapter 7 due to insufficient equity.Ironically, the trustee swiftly secured a buyer for all the properties that were to be sold to STOA/FlipOS—this buyer being Farraway SG, the same entity that acquired the loans held by STOA USA during a time when they were laying off employees and leaving us in a difficult position.STOA never officially filed bankruptcy.
