The objective of this post is to unite all other young investors who are new to the game.

But - if you have short term flips ( less than one year until sold), short term wholesale sales, etc - and if you do more than the IRS deems "part time" or "singular in nature" - the IRS can label you as a "Dealer" - if so...game over.

The local listing agent and property preservation company will have to agree that the new damage is actually new, so it's not easy to get away with bogus damage.There are some games you can play with the contract to get more than their 48 hours, but not a ton more time - usually another 2 days max from my experience.

You would still owe the same amount either way, but BOOM now you have NINE financed properties and can still get #10 Fannie/Freddie and avoid the 7%.There are also games you can play with putting the property and debt in your spouse's name alone (we're a community property state in CA so it makes little difference so long as you're married), with shoving the smallest debt amount into commercial, and a few others, but rolling your lowest mortgage balance into the property that you have the most equity in is the most commonly successful technique.TLDR: You can shove as much debt into as few properties as possible to avoid the 10 financed properties cap.

From what I have gathered by trawling on the internet and other blogs, Big Pockets has been an extremely valuable tool for its members and I hope it works out the same for me as well.Cheers,Tanmay

I know this is not a get rich quick type of game.
