Most companies would require this type of disclosure since its similar to what they are doingYes Chris I agree - I think if anything it's not illegal state-wide or federally, since commercial lending is NMLS-recognized.

It’s too soon tell but from what I’m seeing the hit on the Federal workforce is also impacting contractors throughout the DMV… I expect panic selling which increases inventory, however, with higher interest rates, which will likely continue upwards if tariffs & deporting our cheap labor comes to fruition, first time homebuyers are shut out.  

Quote from @Stendjy Clerveau: I would first look at not doing a flip at all until your cash reserves are saved up more.

The buyer must place and maintain a “reasonable” amount in an interest reserve to be used if a monetary default occurs.  

One key difference is that Prime also includes monthly bookkeeping in their pricing.For reference, here’s what Taxstra provides for $1,500:• Preparation of individual tax return• Electronic filing of federal & state returns• Review of prior-year return for consistency• Up to two hours of post-filing support for minor corrections/questions• Digital document storage• Short-term rental loophole assistance• Personalized video walkthrough of the tax return• IRS/State correspondence for any notices or inquiries• Year-round access for “quick questions” (not requiring additional research)Does anyone here have experience with either of these services, or have recommendations on what to prioritize at this stage?

And that's before factoring in competition from seasoned investors who often have the cash reserves to avoid these costs entirely—allowing them to outbid you and still make a solid profit.If you don’t have significant cash reserves or can’t find a true off-market diamond in the rough, I wouldn’t recommend flipping as your first real estate strategy in Boston.

I was thinking of selling 1 house and taking some profits, but I have become aware of the following federal taxes1.

OP you might research but I believe the Federal OZ program has sunsetted.  

Additionally it seems that even if the event is declared a Federal Diasater, FEMA would offer little if any assistance for Earth quake events.

At least ensure you are getting proper tax advice.C corp and s corp are both US federal tax concepts, not business entities.
