We have to be confident that our investment will be a good choice financially.  

Financials Purchased foreclosed: $220,000 - PITI $1385/monthApplied for and received a FHLB (Federal Home Loan Bank) grant of $15,000 that I used towards down-payment/closing costs.

My 'why' is that I didn't want anyone to have financial control over me.

My realtor office requested the commission from the other Realtor and now the other Realtor is calling me to tell me that my Realtor requested commission and because it, now, she wants me to either move in or to give her an additional deposit, my question is, since I only gave her 1 month deposit and 1 month penalties only and the contact states that the penalties for an early termination of the lease is 2 month, I am obligated to move in to the property or do I have to give her an Extra month penalty in order for the other Realtor pay my Realtor his commission?

I'm a former large cap commercial banker who now works in financial consulting.

I'm a CPA and worked in public accounting as a financial statement auditor for 3 years, and have since moved on to an accounting role at a large corporation here in town. 

If it’s the right relationship, that year compared to a life long foundation for financial freedom means nothing.

Tenants have to do the Application, financial details, lease agreement, check in / Check out sheet etc. good to have something in writing when taking over new property that is currently occupied.

Then, I would evaluate my financial position and see what the best way of getting started would be (in terms of property cost, risk, etc...).

My thought is that if the 50k gain is immediately reinvested into rental stock, the actual net income is zero, but I’m almost sure I’m oversimplifying things.Assuming the answer is "no you cannot", is there any way to do flips to fund rentals that minimize current tax obligations (dumping 100% of proceeds into solo 401k, and then taking loans from 401k to fund the rental downpayment/repairs)?
