Then when you sell another 22% and 8% on that gain?

If selling properties, a 1031 exchange defers capital gains taxes by reinvesting proceeds into another investment property, while Opportunity Zone investments can defer or eliminate capital gains tax over time.Long-term rentals should be held in an LLC for liability protection and tax efficiency.

@Andrew Slezak Opportunity Zone (OZ) investing allows you to defer capital gains taxes (e.g., from crypto) by reinvesting the gains into a Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) within 180 days.

Taxes: Be aware of potential transfer or capital gains taxes, depending on your state.4.

Plus new folks do a very poor job of screening the buyer for Ability To Repay (ATR) which involves pulling full doc and calculating the borrowers DTI, honest income, honest debt payments, prior debt payment histor (FICO) etc etc.Plus shockingly (or shocking to sellers) if you bought this investment house, fixed it, then are selling with financing you are selling "inventory" and y9ou owe taxes on the gain in the year of sale, you are NOT able to use installment sale to spread out paying taxes. 

Beachfront or properties near attractions tend to perform best.Mid-Term Rentals (MTRs): These are gaining traction, especially with traveling nurses and remote workers.

Zillow has a lot of valuable information, but keep in mind that it's algorythms don't work in every market. 

When we moved, we turned it into a rental, hoping this would be the start of our real estate journey—something we’d like to continue once my husband retires.Some key details:My husband is active duty and will retire in 3 years.We have one final move coming up this summer to Raleigh, NC.Our current debts are crippling us—the high interest makes it tough to stay afloat every month.The plan me and my husband are thinking bout:Sell the rental property.Use the proceeds to pay off all our debts, set aside emergency funds and a down payment for our next home.Free up $1,500/month from debt payments, and that also can stash in a high-yield savings account.Regain full VA loan entitlement, allowing us to purchase a multifamily home and use the house hacking strategy for up coming move.Avoid capital gains tax, since April marks five years of ownership, and the tenant’s lease ends in May.This wasn’t our original plan, and we hate the idea of using our equity to pay off debt.
