I'll be doing this under an LLC and I'm not sure if my personal debt to income ratio will affect the purchase or if the LLC is considered to have its own debt to income ratio.

Purchase price: $176,000 Cash invested: $80,000 Off-Market Deal in Southern Orchards that was found through cold-calling.

It also allows to finance the rehab cost into the purchase price.  

The loan officer says the refinanced amount would be 75% of the purchase price and not the new appraised value after rehab.In this case, is it a bad idea to transfer ownership of the duplex into my family member's name and then purchase the duplex back but this time financed? 

Hi all -- I recently purchased 13 acres and built a 10K SF warehouse/office space for my business.I'm looking to begin developing the rest of the land with some contractor garages.

Is the holding period calculated from the purchase date to the sale date?

I originally created an llc to purchase the land, however decided after to buy it in my name and transfer into the llc after the house is built, rented, and refinanced.

The rental market is still extremely hot and prices are high with inventory low, but I have still been managing to cash flow on the new purchases.     

If you were to purchase something I may be interested in being the “local contact” and possibly helping out in other ways if you were to self manage.

For example, if I were to purchase a home for $1M, fix it up then sell it for $1.4M, how much of that $400k gain would be taxed?
