I have a $20,000 debt to the IRS, which I am paying off at $381 per month due to high taxes declared two years in a row to qualify for a mortgage.My goal is to build a portfolio of properties that pay for themselves.

Feel free to DM me and I'd be happy to hop on a call!

But don't mess with the IRS with this.

. - Can we claim after the sale that we’ve made $850k - $350k - $200k = $300K or does IRS not consider the HELOC in the sale please?

@Collin Brown, IRS Publication 523 addresses this quite nicely - Vacant land next to home. 

Shoot me over your email too and I'll send them over.Also happy to hop on a call to chat with you about raising capital for the first time - my husband and I just raised for our first deal last year, so we can relate.

If the numbers are similar in each area and you're not familiar with any, hop in your car or on a plane and visit the one that you think is best.Turnkey can work, but beware that some companies are scams. 

The Loper decision will likely lead to a surge in challenges to IRS authority / rule making.
