Pleasure to meet you Matt!

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

So just to clarify- I can deduct the cash investment I put into this flip as COGS when I go to sell the property if it takes more than 1 year to flip? 

You may have to sell the whole property to access the funds in the IRA or 401k when you retire and for required minimum distributions. 

I'd see if the employer would let me receive part or all of the bonus in 2025 for a number of reasons:- More time to pursue and execute tax-saving strategies- (Possibly) more time to hold on to the $$$ before taxes are due (2026 vs 2025)- Chance that, post-election, there is a possibility that there could be tax changes effective 2025 that could possibly help your situation. 

No one is going to allow that and construction-wise, it is usually not cost-feasible for the output rent on such a large property.

If you talk to appraisers, we have another 20-30% to go.

what you're going to run into is:-most people won't answer.

Glad to have you on the forum, Elwin! 

What you all think when it comes to use deal machine?
