I have a very specific tax question regarding the UBIT (Unrelated Business Income Tax) exemption in Solo 401(k)s that is normally triggered by UDFI  (Unrelated Debt-Financed Income) in IRAs.  

Any advice on if we should use it to pay off our loans against two of our retirement accounts (that we took out for the downpayment on the first STR) in order to lower the monthly bills or if we can/should cash out one or two of our retirement accounts (457 and/or 403b) and pay off the loans? 

Then I'm sending it off to a Skip trace company and they return a ton of data. 

Flipping houses can be profitable, but it's essential to understand the tax implications:1.

Further, we were writing about 40 checks and mailing them to our investors as monthly distributions.

Did anything throw you off?

Explain it is more expensive than you thought to own the house (real estate tax reassessment, etc) and you want to escrow for making future improvements.

Hi Aqsa,I'm bias but then again, I've owned real estate all over and haven't found a better market for sub $100,000 than Toledo.Low entry price pointHigh cashflowEmployed tenants that pay rent onlineDecent areas with well kept homesNot much appreciation so IMO it's a strict cashflow play.If you find and buy off-market you can snag some great deals for sub $60,000 purchase and rehab.Quality of workmanship is the downside and so is motivation of other folks needed to make investing from out of state work.So beware.These are the downsides bit like with any market, you will always have pro's and con's.All the best 👍

Not all lenders can do that, but...for instance...I'm actually a District Manager with Build 2 Rent here in Florida and we have off-market investment properties (both occupied and vacant) that you can purchase with our in-house lenders and interest rates in the low 4's because of the incentives we currently have available. 

Tax Benefits:Real estate investment offers various tax advantages.
