@Dylan Jeluso see if you can join a team in your real estate office to gain experience.

It’s kind of like being a very well paid virtual assistant lol.It is sad so many people continue the 9-5 grind when if they just pay attention a little bit, they could be making money in real estate for themselves in no time.

I’d fix it up and list it to sell after I’d been there two years to take the gain tax free.

By the time they research and go down all the rabbit holes of different strategies, never sticking to one in order to gain traction, they get exhausted, throw their hands up and never take any real substantive action.Pick something and go with it, all the way to its conclusion.  

Having before & after pictures is a string tool when dealing with HMLs and real estate agents to gain business. 

Does this completely prevent the tax lien holder of getting additional gains after foreclosing? 

Be mindful of short-term capital gains tax, as profits from flips held for less than a year are taxed as ordinary income, and frequent flipping may result in self-employment taxes.While profits from flips do not qualify for 1031 exchanges (since flips are considered inventory, not investment properties), you can minimize your tax burden by deducting allowable expenses like renovation costs, loan interest, and holding expenses.If you're considering diversifying into rentals, explore opportunities to benefit from long-term tax advantages such as depreciation and lower long-term capital gains rates.

They should be patient and attentive.

No reason for me to go the through the hassle of the sale process unless there is some type of gain which the investor is open to and this is where I need the advice.

Capital gains realized by nonresidents on the sale of Portuguese property are taxed at a flat rate of 28%.
