I paid him several thousands of $ - well above the $600 tax threshold.

If not the swap, the non-profit might instead offer as much as 1.25x the value in cash, in which case I might consider selling or could just keep it for now (taxes are virtually zero).Does anyone have insight or suggestions on commercial real estate that could help inform this decision?

And are there additional taxes that Arlington County levies on AirBNB operators? 

Why MIS is so unpopular method to defer tax??

Excluding taxes and insurance, your monthly payment is roughly $1,700 dollars a month. 24 months ago that same loan of 250k, with a 715 credit score on a 30-year fixed was hovering around 4% meaning you’d pay just under $1300 per month.

Was thinking rent out our unit, do another another live in flip, live there for 2 years to avoid the tax hit, then sell it….Anyone have any creative suggestions?  

I've interviewed like 4 CPAs/tax strategist this year and it's difficult because I know I'm not always comparing apples to apples.

Thanks to Bigger Pockets for that tip!

I think its typical to see 95-110% TIP just matters to me who is actually supplying the money to pay that interest .

If you simply slow it down just a bit you'll also be able to keep the tax on profit deferred and use it for your own growth with 1031 exchanges.Instead of buying fixing and then selling to ratchet up slowly.
