Hello David, I am an investor based in Charlottesville VA.

I have brokers lining up some pre-approvals but wanted to see if anyone has had some local success with conventional financing or some type of rehab based loans. 

The requirement for the Section 121 exclusion of capital gains on the sale of a primary residence is indeed based on exact dates, not just the calendar year.

I am a CA based investor who's been working with a realtor in Memphis and looking at BRRRR opportunities, but have also considered turn-key options as well. 

Hi @Lisa Zoubi, I'm based in Southern California, but I have started my out-of-state real estate journey in Indianapolis.

Those fees are based on the whole price of the property so selling property with 20% equity can shrink down to 10-15% equity pretty quickly which means you lose between 1/4 and 1/2 of what you made. 

Whoever told you that was wrong...a simple google search would have shown you that. 

So we took the loss, sold the land, went our separate ways and after a long 2 years of solo searching for something in the U.S.

Search for keywords like TLC or "needs" (updating, etc.).

I have worked with many buyers who are part of these kind of programs and I can tell you that the deals that they try to make work are far off based on today's market.
