I still read a ton of business and real estate books going on 5 years doing this.

They are known as the Winthrop Factors-The purpose for which the property was initially acquiredThe purpose for which the property was subsequently heldThe extent of improvements made to the propertyThe number and frequency of sales over timeThe extent to which the property has been disposed ofThe nature of the taxpayer’s business, including other activities and assetsThe amount of advertising/promotion, either directly or through a third partyThe listing of the property for sale through a brokerThe purpose of the held property at time of sale; the classification as an investor or dealer is determined on a property-by-property basis.To me intentionally buying a property to renovate it to resell it for profit, twice in the same year, and opened an entity to do it in ....is going to be ordinary income and not capital gains.

Good luck and much success to you in your real estate business! 

My business partner and I actually own a portfolio of STR's in the area, so if you wanted some insight on that business I'm happy to share as well!
