Yes, I own rentals in my retirement account and also hundreds of my clients.

In today's market, rising interest rates and economic uncertainty might favor holding properties for stable cash flow, while flips could be riskier if buyer demand softens.For many, a hybrid approach works→ flipping in strong markets and holding rentals for long-term stability.

The property would be an investment and a passive income until I retire.

I’m active duty as well about to retire in less than six months.

HML or private money loan would have been  10% down and with renovations funded 100% so your leverage would have been better with HML by quite a bit.. and since you flipped it quickly the interest an points cost would have been within a few grand maybe 5k difference.. and you would not have had to go through all the machinations of a sub to and seller would I am sure been happier getting cash out and their debt retired day one.. 

That is what our team at Rent to Retirement has been helping investors to do for a decade now with BP.

So, from that perspective, I like the idea of "involuntary conversion provisions" to not have to deal with increased "income" in 2023 (because of the insurance payments) and huge "expenses" in 2024 (because of paying the contractors).I thought that has nothing to do with CSS, partial dispositions, having to "retire" the old assets and start tracking the depreciation of the new assets (after all, the CSS allocated 5K to the old roof covering, and we paid 18K+ for the new roof).

Not saying its a bad deal based on loan terms because it might make sense just know as an LP what you are getting into.Market Type & Competition:Determine if the property is in a primary, secondary, or tertiary market.Evaluate supply and demand, focusing on new inventory coming online in primary and secondary markets versus more stable tertiary markets.

Retiring in 20 years looks different than wanting to quit your job and become the next David Greene.

Start paying them down to free up maximum cash flow, at a time when you want to consider retiring.
