We are going to be buying property and building a spec home shortly and need to understand the pros and cons of doing this deal through an LLC vs. as individuals, from a tax perspective.

@Emi Augustin Do not buy a property in Cleveland without contacting Chris Barone from Northpoint Asset Management.

Most folks that are offering you a cash offer + offering to pay off all your closing costs typically buy at a good price (if they're investors).

He is willing to sell at about 15% below value so it is a tough buy and hold sell to an investor.

Or buy AND pay for them - then sell them!

HiI was wondering if anyone happened to buy one of the Rausch Coleman houses in Benton, Bryant or Conway as an investment property?

Buy another fourplex with an FHA loan.

Looking for pure cash flow or strong appreciation buy and hold?

If I can ever help on the PM side let me know, but we also buy/own multifamily properties so happy to help on the ownership side too if possible.
