-Is it bad that being indirectly told I can't do this from multiple sources is making me want to do it more and bigger?

You can take a salary/dividend split to minimize FICA taxesIf i were to go with LLC-s corp election, would this being giving up the passive income benefit of an llc?

If not, is anyone aware of any other program I might be able to benefit from?

If you don't have to tear the kitchen apart to do it, I'd add the dishwasher, They won't want to move to a place without one after having it, on the disposal, I think the cleaner trash is to your benefit, especially in a multi!

The benefits to adding "wow factor" to your flips is that you will have the nicest home on the market for that area which should generate a quick sale (quick sale = more money in your pocket due to less holding costs and future opportunity costs).Now you have to be careful not to ver rehab as you can overspend and not get it back.

If the interest rate on my loan is 4% and I am going to receive interest benefits, I feel I only need to make slightly over 4% and I come out ahead.

Lenders who can perform I don't know why people wouldn't share them for the benefit of others.One of the only reasons I could see is that the private source only has limited funds to give out and the buyer wants the source for themselves.Another reason could be that with more applicants to the source the buyers deals take longer to close or other buyers wanting the money offer better rates to the loan source to get the money.In these situations I could see why someone would not want to share their sources for funding.

That way you get the benefit the equity capture for today's prices.

At some point, you will need to find a way for you to receive the benefits from acquiring that property, and most people will want title passed to them as buyer.

Also, your experience in the JR business will be a great benefit as well, as it sounds like you have what it takes to run a business.Anyways, welcome to BP!
