So there are a few considerations on which is the optimal solution to minimize your taxes/maximize your after tax return.

Now as for taxes on the $10 million in profit, which business entity would be optimal, if he decides to cash out the $10 million in profit at the end of the first year of business for personal use?

Some things are beyond my control, therefore I don't optimize my investments for the long term.In my case, I arrived in the bay area in early 2012 which was the perfect time to buy a house.

Figure out where the curve optimizes for your situation.Yes, this intentionally does not include property appreciation, changes in rental amounts, value add capital expenses, or rate of change in Opex.

This consumes a lot of the extra cash value that you had at the beginning.If you have a lump sum, the optimal funding period is 5 years.

We also provide revenue and occupancy reports on any unit you’re interested in, or we can provide feedback on how to optimize a unit you have already purchased.

Then I did an IRRRL a little down the road to optimize the interest rate. $8k lender credit minus paying $120 more for six months minus refi closing costs = came out ahead a couple grand, relative to taking the par rate. 

As I finish planning my goals for 2015, I'm filled with such a sense of optimism and excitement for the year to come.  

However, when I'm the one making the decisions I usually will try to optimize EVERY aspect and dither around... hence trying to find an accountability buddy (or course, in this case).

The first derivative of jobless claims approaching zero is often a leading indicator of recovery;- Stocks have hit a 1-year high, indicating increased optimism.
