Does anyone know a company that will come and fix the duct in the ceiling?

. - Lot more inventory to work with (flexibility)- I see many affordable homes 150k-250k range and multi unit homes around 250-400k range- Thinking of buying between or near UNLV university/ main strip so I have faculties, staff, students from the universities as well as employees from the casino/hotel- Property Tax is cheaper (but can be a con in other states).Con & other inputs: - I feel like Las Vegas have short term residence more than long term residence (most of the properties seems to be owners who are not purchasing to live but to use it as vacation home or short/long term rentals.... so many properties can be vacant and potentially allow squatters/long eviction process)- Nevada law require a "responsible" person aka landlord/property management within 60 miles - Distance (I like to buy my properties locally because I can stop by or fix something if needed either by myself or contractors that I work with/familiar with- Property Management fees since long distance - Finding a property management company that is reliable and trustworthy. - Unfamiliarity with the area/surroundings- Lower Rent compared to CA but I know I can't compare apples and Oranges (But I don't want to invest just to break even)------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tax questions ***Some state does not have tax on income(?)

I purchased the property and fixed it up all in cash, but in order to finance it to get my investment back, I believe I'll need to wait the minimum settle time which is ~6 months. 

The people and content here are amazing.I would like to share with everyone a milestone reached yesterday: Closing on 1st Fix and Flip/HoldI am humbled and very grateful to all who have helped and showed supported along the way. 

Here's my question: Could my expenses to fix up the house (it needs a lot) be used to offset the Penalty and tax I will generate from using this IRA?

Owner would therefore face a large capital gains penalty upon selling the asset.Would it be possible/legal to execute a master lease option with a buyout that is intended to outlive the seller such that they can have fixed income for the remainder of their life, and such that their children can receive stepped basis by inheriting the asset that is already under contract (which was obviously written to be binding upon successor's and heirs).

Here's my question: Could my expenses to fix up the house (it needs a lot) be used to offset the Penalty and tax I will generate from using this IRA?

By planting these fixed seeds that are and continue to pay dividend, it stabilized my income flows and concurrently allowed me to build up reserves for additional purchases. 

We closed on our first deal, a fix and flip in Summerfield, NC, at the end of July and are currently doing renovations.

from someone who likes fixing things?
