I would prefer to buy the house in my LLC but I also want to maximize the profits and minimize the tax burden.  

But I want to take the next two one at a time and do as well as I did on this one, so I can maximize the money I have to invest.

I have both exclusive (meaning they cannot sell the land to anyone else during the duration of our agreement) and I also have a non-exclusive, just in case they're not comfortable tying themselves down to me.

New to this investing thing, but been in banking and real estate for about 15 years working with banks, RE agents, and finally landing at a title company... i'm ready for a change. bc frankly, i'm not getting any younger and i'm not seeing myself retiring comfortably... plus i'm sick of working my *** off for someone else... been tossing around the idea of getting my RE license, but there are soooo many realtors, i thought i would check into investing instead... found Renautus... and no, i won't try to sell it to you, not even sure i am going to buy the course now... but their pitch got me thinking and wanting to look into it more... so here i am.I downloaded the beginner guide and am going through that... and i have been looking for a few local clubs to start going to... any suggestions would be awesome... and i am doing my research on which niche i want to perfect ;)Hope to learn alot here... back to reading!

The lady I sat next to used to be a real estate agent but has been out of the game for 8 years and is now getting back in so that she and her husband can retire and live in our area comfortably.  

Hi - I have gotten fairly comfortable with the basic Investor MAO formula of 70% of ARV-repairs.However, I know there is another model of acquiring investment grade properties which is to take over the sellers mortgage.
