Fascinating, I know.How we'd want it to work (spoiler: it doesn't)Year 1: no cash = no taxesYear 2: no cash = no taxesYear 3: $15k cash is a partial return of the $100k investment = no taxesYear 4: $200k cash is split into $85k remaining initial investment, and the other $115k is a capital gain taxed at 15%.This would be simple and fair.

I currently work full-time as a Marketing Communications Manager, and have had great interest in the real estate industry--both because of the prospect of building financial freedom, but also I've held genuine fascination with the field.I've lived in SC for 3 years--moving from VA and growing up in MD.I would like to know of some trusted books concerning areas such as Wholesaling and other low-cash/no-cash investment approaches.
