So the question becomes based on their individual and personal tax situation what is the estimated tax burden they'd save? 

While I was scared, I still proceeded since I had just learned the general process from my course.

Doctors who deliver babies learn how in their OBGYN rotation and midwives counseling pregnant women are mostly mothers themselves.

Tax-Free Exchanges: While 1031 exchanges aren't available to SDIRAs, the tax deferral within the account means you can sell property and reinvest proceeds into new opportunities without immediate tax consequences.

Post Dodd Frank sellers have continued the same bad practice of selling houses to occupants with financing at selling prices that are way high, can't be justified via any type of 3rd party valuation (appraisal, zestimate, tax value, even recent sales in the same area).   

Being a real estate professional allows you to treat the income as non-passive, allowing higher high income tax payers to pay less in taxes.

Yes, property taxes are higher for investors but not terrible. 

I would be beneficial to determine if they are other aspects of the property that make it a worthwhile investment (tax, appreciation etc).

I am new and interested in learning more about property investment and how it works.1.
