So with all that in mind as a property owner perspective no, I don't think it's a good idea.

I am looking for a deal within a 100 mile radius of my town that I can buy for 75% of its future value. I am talking about buying and rehabbing so I get a loan for 75% of its future value . If i get a home that can be...

As to converting your 1099 job into S-Corp, it is not going to be as beneficial from tax perspective. 

@Sean Autry thank you, that’s helpful perspective!

Would it make more sense to: Purposely forgo legal tax write offs to show higher income and then more easily qualify for conventional financing, at lower rates and better terms ORKeep taxes as low as legally possible and seek alternative funding via private or hard money, typically at much higher rates ORIs there a 3rd alternative I'm not thinking about... like credit unionsWould greatly appreciate to get your perspective on this.  

We have a great GC whom we're meeting with soon, so really appreciate that perspective, as I'd been considering doing it myself.
