From time to time, I find myself on the selling end of this.

Assuming a 30% tax on the gain, I am ballparking that benefit to be a $480k tax shield for the children.However, the owners would prefer to sell now.  

My only concern is I will have just as hard of a time selling it. 

Purchasing a new townhome and received the following as best so far:- 6.875% 7/1 ARM- 7.35% 30-year fixed I am aware of the risks with the ARM and plan is to either refi when (if) rates drop, or sell around year 5 (along with others I plan to purchase) to get into commercial or larger multifamily.

A while back I was selling a house and we needed an appraisal.

Flipping involves purchasing properties below market value, renovating them, and selling them for a profit.

@Stephanie LucianoIf you currently own a home and you don't plan on selling it or making it an investment property, this financing option wouldn't be available to you.

It may require having the job pre-inspected to get that determination.Unpermitted jobs will cause you problems when you try to sell the property because the appraisers look that stuff up.

I'm considering a pay-per-click strategy to drive traffic to a web form for homeowners who are interested in selling quickly and as-is.

Next step you are selling off the annual option payment.
