While I don’t own investments there, I’ve explored the market and see potential for some long-term growth.

I wasn’t trying to be long winded, with too much detail, in my initial post but I actually did this method on a fix and flip.

With fluctuating interest rates, tighter lending criteria, and increased competition for properties, securing the right financing has become a key factor in closing deals and maximizing ROI.Are you exploring creative options like BRRRR, partnerships, or seller financing?

Be mindful of short-term capital gains tax, as profits from flips held for less than a year are taxed as ordinary income, and frequent flipping may result in self-employment taxes.While profits from flips do not qualify for 1031 exchanges (since flips are considered inventory, not investment properties), you can minimize your tax burden by deducting allowable expenses like renovation costs, loan interest, and holding expenses.If you're considering diversifying into rentals, explore opportunities to benefit from long-term tax advantages such as depreciation and lower long-term capital gains rates.

I’d love to hear more about your goals and explore how we might collaborate to work together.

If you ever want to have a discussion to explore your options or ask any questions about the concerns you mentioned, I would be happy to help! 

On the contrary, uncertainty is the breeding ground for creating wealth.The core of the issue is whether you are willing to step out of the traditional investment framework and explore new business models and market opportunities.

But why would that make them want to use this financing method?

I’ve done a couple of fix-and-flip projects in the past using a hard money lender (HML), which has its pros and cons.I’m currently looking at a couple more properties and trying to decide if I should go with an HML again or explore other financing options.
