@Ashley Madalone guessing you're asking what the tax ramifications of using pre-tax business funds to invest are.Not aware of a way to buy real estate and avoid paying taxes on the funds unless he'll use the real estate in his business.His tax professional will probably advise he take the funds out as a loan, at a market rate & payment terms.

Most tax professionals do not advise their clients to utilize this approach and it may raise concerns under IRS examination.

Quote from @Sandra Feurtado: Is it advisable to visit a potential investment area or is it ok to buy without visiting the area?
