I've been a daily user on Bigger Pockets for about 12 or so years.

@Bao Vu The purchase price and related expenses from 2023 should be included in the cost basis for the flip sold in 2024, reducing your taxable gain.

That does not even include the one or two deals that happen daily or weekly between realtors who know the buyer/seller and make a deal happen as almost an off-market deal.

@Gary M caceres see if water company can give you daily consumption amounts, so you can figure out when it started - may help find the problem.

I'm wondering about servicing these after completion on a longer term basis following a DSCR guideline as they will be rented, and then selling them in a secondary market.

I'm in a small town with nobody to really network with on a regular basis.

An income account tracks revenue, while an operating expense account keeps daily costs organized.

RTC stands for "Over the Counter" which itself means, liens that were not sold at the original lien auction and are available no on  a first come first served basis at face value. 

Even though, real estate investments are not uniform in different markets and asset classes, just on the 16-17 year cycle basis and if you primarily rely on appreciation, this may be the perfect time to buy!

They teach ME things on a regular basis.
