With the higher tax bracket you'd want to give preference to investments that offer anything other than ordinary income, which entails most likely turn keys or syndications.

Without knowing what the situation entails, everyone here is just speculating.

@Wayne BrooksThanks Wayne, when you say on the clock what that entails?

Possibly a year.Estimated Resale: $1,310,000 (confirmed by an appraisal) Could be more/less depending on where market will be in 8 to 10 months.The project entails remodeling the 1st floor and adding a 2nd floor to increase sq footage.

@Greg Scully As others have mentioned, passive investing entails buying a security.

@Byron StoddardDoing a BRRRR and having a self-employed job are two separate items on a tax return and likely will not impact either or.Did you provide each CPA a copy of your current/prior year return or give them an analysis of what your return entails in addition to what your goals/plans are for your self-employed business?

I think one of the better strategies for you will be to house-hack which entails buying a residential multi (2-4 units), moving into one of the units while renting out the others.

So I imagine it's probably not the safest neighborhood (but only an assumption)2) the listing indicates it's a turnkey, which entails this is not a value add3) the expenses are about 30% of the income. huge red flag. they should be more like within 40-60% range.You can use the loopnet properties to practice your underwriting but otherwise, always look for potential red flag as the listing agents usually present a property with pro-forma numbers.Originally posted by @Alessandro Struppa:Originally posted by @Spencer Gray:As a general rule if a property is on Loopnet and has a high listed cap rate / sales price it means that these deals have been passed on by active investors/buyers. 

Purchase price: $700,000 Cash invested: $80,000 This deal entailed the purchase and re-position of a condominium in a historic upper west side building.
