It sounds like you’ve got a solid plan in place with the bank refinance to secure long-term financing.

However, you can reduce tax liability by:Converting the flip into a rental for at least a year, allowing for depreciation and potential 1031 exchange benefits when selling.Offsetting gains with deductions, such as accelerating business expenses or using cost segregation for rentals.Using an S-Corp for future flips to lower self-employment taxes while keeping rentals in an LLC for liability protection.Deferring deductions to 2025 if your 2024 taxable income is high.While a 1031 exchange isn’t an option for flips, strategic tax planning can help minimize taxes.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

I think we are competitively priced, so most of out tenants have been renewing, but we plan to test higher rents in 2025  for our larger apartment buildings to account for the steep increase in insurance prices.There have been A LOT of new apartment buildings put up recently in the Cedar Rapids metro area, so depending on the class of tenant you have, maybe that could account for some of softening you are seeing? 

Would love to hear what you’ve got planned for the future.

Oakland has some ambitious plans to improve the city, and as rate improves, I firmly believe certain parts of Oakland will recover faster than others.
