@Karissa Green Agree with @Andrew Postell purchasing a property from a company that you own will result in a huge tax bill on capital gain because once a 'sale' happens, a 1099 has to be issued, and therefore IRS knows a sale has occurred.

.- Assume $1,000,000 short-term capital gain  (with other income, so max-tax)Note that before the gain, I was already planning to buy a couple commerical properties (1 in state, 1 out of state), but then due to the gain, I wound up learning about Opportunity Zone investing, QOF/QOZB, etc. -- unfortunately the 2 properties I wanted to buyer are OUTSIDE of their respective states OZ's.

Is the goal just to get a high paying 9-5, create other passive income forms to gain capital and invest?
