Wholesaling has capital gains which eats into profits big time, I actually get tax write offs instead.

Rule of thumbs:You should always try and B&H as compounding interest will always overcome the short-term gain. 

It allows you to ease into being a landlord, gain experience managing tenants, do repairs and property maintenance without the pressure of a tight flip timeline and while you're getting comfortable as a landlord, you can gradually build your real estate team.

Consider the capital gains tax implications if you sell the property after it has been a rental.I hope this helped, please reach out if you have any other questions!

I am new to Bigger Pockets was wondering in gaining insight about this real estate field I have some properties already I'm trying to gain information on was also wondering if any of you would be interested in working together discussing properties possibly even discussing contracts would make it easier if we could swap information as well thank you to all of you that reply back

Most people who househack use that as an opportunity to gain experience into managing a property for themselves.

Since this is capital gains income I know it's looked at differently. 

Are the funds simply gaining interest (which you are entitled to keep) or is there a potential for loss?

Then I gain knowledge and hopefully can be my own agent.

I love reading success stories here and you had a great strategy of fixing up a property you were familiar with to create incredible gains.
