@Paul ElstonEach of the areas you're considering—Charlotte, High Point/Greensboro, and Raleigh—has its unique charm and real estate market dynamics.

While I like Grant in a unique way, remember his is an expert SALESMAN.

Hey guysI started to do section 8 and i have a question lately i feel section 8 no paying according to the table sheet they have online in government website, they having appraiser do comps and paying as regular long term rental maybe a bit more but not tremendously. i called them , emailed and all but that is their strategy now , so i asked why they put wrong info on website, seems like they want to lure Landlords lol ..for example https://dhantx.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/FY24-Payment-S...You can see zip code 76227 with 5 bedroom showing $4921 (less bills $500) so its $4221.but actually people getting $2800-3000 how come it is ?

Find someone that brings to the table what you don't and partner with them.

No lender fees were added between your last talk with Michael and the closing table.

That will pretty significantly reduce the net taxable income amount.The net taxable income is then run through the trust tax table, which actually tops out at 37%, but on a graduated scale.Your vague "profit" number makes it impossible to provide an accurate representation in this scenario, but I suspect the net taxable amount would be considerably less than how you are evaluating this.

If you plan to operate this product, you still need to have cash to bring to the table as well as enough liquidity for rehabbing (you can get reimbursed through draws, but you start out using your own liquid).

Not saying you haven’t been successful running your business, but you likely left a lot of money on the table by lacking financial fluency. take the time to learn more about general investment fundamentals and you’ll see the benefits in your primary business too.  

They also have a table that provides rent ranges based on bedrooms/baths and sq footage.

I have a foreign client who is completing a 1031 exchange, and has decided to bring extra cash to the closing table to replenish the "withheld" FIRPTA amount on the sale of the relinquished property.
