Tax compliance is rarely a "choose your own adventure" type of deal if the tax year has already closed.

So, wait to close after May6th. 

You would want to work closely with your CPA or a good 1031 company to nail down the timing of it all. 

She might be referring to transactions that don't reach the closing table due to the buyers' fault, and then they would refer someone they trust to close.

@Steve Saenz - This depends on your state (I'm in NC); however, the first time I did a private lender funded deal, I had the same attorney who was handling the closing, also write-up the deed of trust and note for the private lender.

My thoughts were to do a ground level 3/2 long term rental and use the basement to have a small 1 bedroom midterm rental since it was close to NORTHSIDE Gwinnett

I mean you know they aren’t closing, they don’t even have the emd, much less the downpayment.

For example, if the house is $100k and the renovations are $10k, your down payment would be 3.5% of $110k (plus closing fees of course).

The mortgages and closing expense can be written off to eliminate the taxes as you want 

Anyone have any good Closing Title Companies that work with investors here in Southern California by Riverside County, Los Angeles County, or San Bernardino County?
