I think the main thing I am learning here is to adjust the profit share between myself and my private money partners.

Real Estate plus the business would be a stronger package, sold as a business vs. just the real estate.

I bought vacant land, built a spec home and sold it to an end user.

If you have access to private equity then sure, but if you want to buy properties yourself then at best you are looking at 1-2 per year if you have really good income. 3.

Hey, I’m looking to connect and network with private individuals who lend money on real estate deals.

I did a recent flip with much warmer colors, actually used SW Creamy on the walls, and the house sold in 5 days. 

As far as your primary residence, if you have lived in it 2 out of the last 5 years, you should not have to pay taxes on capital gains (difference between what you paid for it & what you sold it for) up to $250,000 if you file your taxes as an individual and $500,000 if you file jointly with a spouse.Just a disclaimer, I am not a tax professional.

We've sold off some of the smaller, lower end properties, and redeployed that capital into something that is a little higher end experience.

Others purchased smaller properties, and sold their lots to builders.

I took a small private loan and bought my first home.
