I cant tell you how many times my clients use a lender of their choosing because they have a lower rate than the lenders I recommend....then their lender does something to screw up and we need to switch to the lender I recommended in the first place to save the transaction.

@Joseph Ortiz I have used them for multitudes of clients on our hard money deals and they are awesome.

In February I received a client that I thought was a guaranteed transaction but unfortunately failed. 

If there is no gain recognization because of 121 exclusion, there is no benefit of paying yourself a commission because you do not use commission deduction against your gain but you get taxed on it (again).

I'm asking from the perspective of me as the client of the builder.

While I have never lived west of 75, I have sold and assisted clients in purchasing numerous properties all over the West side of Hamilton County.

I’m new so forgive my ignorance.

Client bought a house several years ago.
Lived in it for a few years, mother got sick so he moved in with his mother to help her.

The property in question has been paid off for years...
