A misconception about the real estate professional status (REPS) is that you can be in a real property trade or business (in your case, home building company) and still qualify. 

My business partner also has a lot of knowledge around marketing strategies for this type of STR.

The best accountants and CPAs will be able to offer you a secure document transfer system in order to keep your sensitive information safe, and also be able to conduct their bookkeeping and tax return services electronically as well, saving both time and money.In my personal ventures into real estate, I have started several LLCs and would be happy to share my real estate experiences with you.

If anyone in this group has experience with forming long term partnerships with other wholesalers that you get into business with via an llc please reach out to me.

Well it is just previous SFH we used to live in turned into rentals, my parents knowledge in RE isn’t as good as say our knowledge in the restaurant or business industry. but i get what you’re saying which is why we are trying to pivot whilst we have the nice cash from our business coming in to help fund our deals.The thing with the New Construction is it will take a lot of my powder but i can save it again pretty fast considering the very frugal life i live and the amount i work. but crazy to say some of the time atleast right now in my area new construct is better deal than existing buildings. its crazy ik but its true

New investors or people who are getting into the game ask me "Is flipping properties still a good business now?"
