This was struck down, but they tried. 

The icing on top of these joys - to the extent the property is depreciable in the hands of the recipient - it is an ORDINARY gain, and not a capital gain. 

Me and my Partner have a deal under contract out of town but the greatest challenge is finding buyers in that market.Feels like we called every line available to find buyers in the area but we haven't struck a solid buyer any suggestions on building a buyers list or finding buyers interested in Fix and Flips Near WACO.

Very informative and gives an interesting look at investors' experience in this market.But courtesy first, my husband and I are "out"-out-of-state investors, looking for deals in NE and East of Downtown.For the past 3 months, we've been researching and submitting offers on properties to match the COMPS and rejected.Our budget is about $100K, stretching it to 120K for the right property + rehab.The problem is that we had to offer low-balls for the numbers to work, and then get rejected.It seems it's a narrow fit to BRRR, hence the cashflow is "on edge" here.Doesn't appreciation suppose to be the icing on the top?

Flagstaff is beautiful, but cold in the winter with a lot of snow (it dumps and then melts & re-freezes - watch out for black ice), is mainly a college town, and is very cliquey (if you were not born and raised there, you will always be considered an outsider by the locals).
