It was not meant as an investment until after I moved out and realized all the benefits of real estate from renting.

Many of them said that said that perhaps the most fulfilling benefit of being successful was having the ability/resources to give back.So I want to ask you all, successful and soon to be success men and women, how have you or how will you give back?

I was curious if there was a benefit (tax wise) to selling it as a corporate asset or a personally owned asset.

I’ve been listening and reading about Tom Wheelwright’s suggestion on cashing out on 401k/IRA and taking the penalties and investing it in real estate since new tax laws would be in favor of investors.With new tax laws (2017) and the many deductions (bonus depreciation and doing a Cost Segregation), would passive investors benefit by cashing out their previous employer's 401k or traditional IRA to invest in real estate?

The homeowner cannot financially benefit from the short sale. 

Also this benefits you because they will be more likely to be able get the deal to closing in the first place.

And I did note that some of the tax  statements contained an exclusion (per the new tax law) for Qualified Business Income which I assume is a benefit to investors...but again, I'm not a CPA.

No landlord headaches (main argument against buy-and-hold) and no giving up of future appreciation potential and a portion of tax benefits (main argument against selling on terms).I vacillate back and forth between buy & hold rentals vs flipping w/owner-finance; why not just do both...?
