I have some friends that are amazingly talented owning and running C type properties but they are local to the product.

Steve & I are working on several existing production oil deals.

Long story short- I'm currently doing a live-in flip and plan on selling the finished product in the Spring.

Options are still a great tool in the tool box, it's going to take some education to learn what they really are and do as opposed to the folklore found in public forums, blogs and sold as a product by gurus.

If someone comes to me, I'll send them your way.If you need help in your search or want to verify something don't hesitate to ask.For example: I have clients worldwide and things are just as easy as I e-mail them, talking on the phone.

from a tax perspective are we better off of now, with only 1 property to not do llc and keep reporting of income on our personal taxes in the schedule e?

Please feel free to contact me here or my direct e mail and we can talk about doing some dealsThank youChris

I agree it's good to shop for the best price and the best product for your rehabbing needs.  

The property is a rental.I know this loan product is available. 

After reading about the HouseFlippingSpreadSheet on J Scott's web site I am thinking about buying it since I am planning on doing my first rehab next year.J's recommendation goes a long way IMO but I was curious if anyone else has any suggestions or advise about this product or any other similar products they use and recommend.
