It is important to remember that if you buy a single family home that you will live in for a while, consider living in it for 2 years before you sell because the IRS will allow you to exclude up to $250,000 of capital gain on your property from being taxed ($500,000 for married couples).

It benefits from strong rental demand, making it easier to find and retain tenants.

Benefits homeowners NOT institutional investors.

Hello, looking to gain some market information on section 8 housing in this city.

What you need to consider is the costs to refinance possibly outweighing the benefit of the lowered interest rate, depending on the time you plan to hold the property.

I started by continuously reaching out to some of the most successful investors in my area and offering to work for free and gain knowledge in return.

Good work on the cost benefit analysis, but I don't think a room that small could quantify the extra $100k in value.

I ran my own business for 15 years right out of college that had huge benefits for being an entrepreneur but didn’t create any real transferable job skills.

Don't overlook potential tax benefits and appreciation.

While the $135K note qualifies for section 453 installment sale treatment with the gain spread out during the payment period. 1) Is my understanding of this transaction correct?
