After staging, it was sold to a retail buyer for a strong profit, demonstrating the potential for significant returns by buying from motivated sellers, renovating strategically, and selling at retail.

The home was then sold for a profit, providing a strong return on investment.

**As investors, you are closest to the consumer (home buyers/renters), so you tend to absorb costs and reduced profits from unexpected spikes in expenses that wholesalers or contractors pass on to you!

By prioritizing five-star reviews, I built a strong reputation, which led to increased bookings and higher profitability.

Vacancy is the biggest killer of profitable rentals.You’ll never be able to get it rented if it’s not listed.

Do you typically keep profits in the US/USD?

I have two local rentals that cash flow nicely, but all that profit is thrown towards this house so I'm completely negative. 

If your IRA receives an equity portion of profits from the business, it will likely have tax liability via UBIT that would be detrimental.Owning income producing real estate or interest from lending are passive activities not subject to UBIT. 

I don't have much advice as now the profits are gone and it seems like the best thing to do is to get your money out the deal and move on.  

I would recommend fixing it and then determining whether or not to sell based on cash flow and profit after the sale.
