I am just down the road from you in Portland but travel up I5 to Tacoma/Seattle regularly.

Use it regularly and pay it off every month.If your current rental properties are lien free, then get them moved over to the LLC ASAP!  

As others local BPers have mentioned, there are a few very good regular meetings.

.- Also, DoD doesn't do matching TSP contributions for uniformed service members, so the Roth TSP is a better investment than the regular TSP (tax-deferred), just like a Roth IRA is better than a 401K that doesn't match contributions.My strategy, for what it's worth: Like you, I contributed significantly to my Roth IRA and Roth TSP during the first 10 years of my career. 

Getting an umbrella policy to go along with the regular insurance is a good thing to consider. 

Keep an eye out for BP LA meetups when you arrive or the other regular meet ups.

Under a pilot immigration program first enacted in 1992 and regularly reauthorized since, certain EB-5 visas also are set aside for investors in Regional Centers designated by USCIS based on proposals for promoting economic growth.”So why am I talking about EB5?

Let me know.Thanks,Sam WilliamsQuestion is a bit vague, but here are couple of regular meet ups in Pinellas.Every Monday 7pm there is a meet up at Hibachi Buffet, 7610 49th St N, Pinellas Park, FL.Topics discussed on any given week may include: - Properties for Sale or Rent - Properties Wanted - Tenants Wanted - Landlording Issues - Real Estate Laws - Land Trusts - Real Estate Services - Real Estate Training - Deal Structuring - NetworkingAlso, every 3rd Thursday of every month at 6pm there is a meet-up at Gators Cafe, 12754 Kingfish Drive, Treasure Island, FL 33706Goal is to get the Real Estate Investing community together in a fun setting where we can discuss opportunities, ideas, brainstorm, network, and figure out additional ways to help each other make more money investing in real estate.And there is a few REIAs in Tampa Bay as well.

Just trying to get a sense of this.If I were to flip one house that I bought under my name and sell under my name.And if I have a regular full time w2 job.Would that mean that the flip would be considered short term capital gain and taxed at regular ordinary income but that I would not be considered a dealer and - as such - would not have to pay all the self employment taxes involved with that?

Some investor bought it and is now looking to sell it at the same price as last year - regular sale.
