Off the MLS - Had it under contract twice. :) Long story - How did you finance this deal?

off market via networking with other investorsHow did you finance this deal?

The software my accountant is using is writing off these losses against my W-2 income which is telling me I am entitled to a refund. 

As long as you have an exit and do not get stuck with the penalties and interest if you do not pay it off in time, its not a bad idea.

I assure, rates will NOT significantly drop any time soon, as in years off.

I am in Florida and I have found off market deals available and moving.  

Please feel free to reach out to one preferably my email as we are not allow to self promote. 

Will you be spending enough to make this its own asset and depreciate it, or will you be able to just write off the total on your tax return in one year. 

In every county except Jefferson County, if the assessed owner's name was in the pre-auction advertising, and that was the name called off at auction, but that person died before the auction, then the tax sale is void.

You may want to start off with a turnkey company to learn the ropes.
