What is the best approach to make this transaction, to minimize my expenses including taxes?

If, on the other hand, you have a MINIMAL budget for marketing, $50 a month is chump change if it gives you several more hours a month to spend on the actual business.Spend your time on the things that make money, and outsource the things that are not your core business or competency.  

I'd say about half of our flips are minimal rehabs.

Where I live in Oregon making good cash flow with minimal risk and effort (ie: passive) took me to invest out of state in turnkey properties.

Never a sales pitch, lots of networking.

You're not pitching (ideally), so just be yourself and talk naturally with people.

Use an account that is very quiet to minimize these headaches.

@Alfonso Velazquez  sadly most of the Guru pitches saying if you sign up for our program we fund your deals" are absolutely bogus.

When getting ready to close one's first deal as a newcomer, what are some steps to take to minimize the risk involved?
