I am even building a software tool that bridges my two passions...real estate and technology :)  The tool intelligently and automatically sources awesome deals for real estate investors and I would love my fellow BiggerPocketers to check it out because I am building it to help not only myself, but others too! 

Is this a way to dodge paying taxes until a later date?

It's far from perfect but it has worked to date.

A fellow Realtor that could answer a lot of questions and is great to work with is Daniel Wilson at email me and I will send you his information.Remember a phone call costs nothing!

There's lots of personal info there that could be used for identity theft (date of birth, SSN, current address) AND email is insecure (meaning hackers can intercept and use without anyone even knowing this has occurred.One secure means to electronically transport that kind of data to you safely and securely isFAX ITA fax comes directly from one fax machine to the other without being stored anywhere in between. 

If you cannot locate good comps, stay in the same radius, but increase the sold date range.

It's great and I look forward to learning from many wise and experienced investors here.I'd like to network with any wholesalers who work the area along with private lenders & my fellow flippers.  

For IRS form 8824 line 3 what is the date of acquisition of the property we gave up? 

Saying if they don't pay me within 30 days of due date take them to court and they owe me price of home that we agreed on.

Other option is to ask fellow investor so BP or local Rei club is good place to get some recommendation.
