How did you arrive at your cost?  

Hello All,the thing about Marko Rubel which i noticed there , because i watched his webinar twice is that , he is trying to convenience everybody that his business model and strategies of financial solutions are the best through getting the profit by ownership , which is not taxable like as a capital gain , and it is the best model for the real estate growth now compared to the last 5 years of recovery after the 2008 market crash , while the money of wholesaling or flipping are not capital gain are taxable big time compared to that , so those models are not convenient to the current market and it's progression , i wanted to discuss this idea with anybody who might know or think of it , i do not think that is absolutely true , any ideas thanks Ehab T  

Dan ,During the market crash of late 2008 and early 2009 was the time I bought directly from the banks.

So as you all know in 08'-09' the market crashed, so that plan went out the window.

In order to arrive at  that, you have to a real handle on AVR (the price you will expect when you sell), the rehab construction estimates, knowing your fixed costs and selling costs.

First of all, the markets that we're investing in hasn't fully recovered from the housing crash, and homes can be bought for significant discounts to their replacement cost.

Stepdad was a realtor and his brother was/is a builder in southern Oregon before the crash.
