When buying real estate does it matter that people can see what you purchased property for and then wanna resell for?

Some deals (and maybe this one), aren't worth doing, even if you get a lower price because even if you had to resell, you'd loose any discount with the cost of transaction.

If the market dives when you are halfway through a flip that is taking 2 years when you thought it would take 6 months you could have an issue on your hands when trying to resell.  

My businesses is quite simple, I buy properties all over the country at 60% of as-is value from off market deals and re-sell at full value on the MLS.  

Flipping PropertiesIf the primary objective of your real estate business, or one of your real estate businesses, is to buy, potentially fix up an existing property and resell it within one year, the Internal Revenue Service can consider that to be an active trade or business.

My previous endeavors have been buying smalls (store closing inventory, etc.) and reselling for profit.

If it's clearly a big job (not paint, flooring, and re-sell), then I'd rather have some cleanup done.

Without it, you are just a box reseller with an address.

mark gallagar I wouldn't expect anything less from someone who is representing the bank.but fnme are the worst.starting at ridiculous high prices.following with 30 days deed restrictions in reselling then 90 days cannot resell for more than 120% of the purchase price. . and I can go on and on.. so by saying they are investors friendly I guess you mean they are friendly to the bank investors but definitely not to us - the real estate investors.. happy investing my friend :) 

I think honesty and being upfront that you are reselling them to make a profit goes a long way of making it less unethically.
