I feel like I e read before that 25% of net profit is a good rule of thumb to set aside for those taxes, but what have you all found to be true?

If you have a contract with a listing agent, they are selling your house and you have no obligation to them if you go and buy a house unless you signed buyer agency agreement with them.Side note, anyone working for .5 percent isn't worth working with and you sound like the worst client for an agent in the world.

I’m nearing the completion of my Tennessee Real Estate License, and I’m eager to connect with like-minded individuals in the real estate space, specifically in the Nashville and Franklin areas.I bring over 8 years of experience in renovations and custom home building, which has given me a deep understanding of the construction side of real estate.

They like getting their “mailbox money” and spreading out the capital gains over time.
