Maximizing Your Tax Benefits as a Real Estate Investor
8 May 2024 | 3 replies
If there are tax benefits, that certainly helps and can add to the wealth building by freeing up more cash for more income-producing stuff.My opinion, of course, but I try to encourage my investors to be wealth-forward rather than tax-forward.

Some of those local competitors will pay all cash, site unseen, with title issues.This is a numbers game, so find the zip codes/neighborhoods with a lot of market activity (i.e., the most dots on a Zillow map search) and delve deeper to see if it's an area of interest.Lastly, when looking up properties, be mindful of taxes.

FIRPTA withholding on a domestic LLC with foreign members/manager
8 May 2024 | 5 replies
Code § 7701 - Definitions, my understanding is that the answer is NO, but maybe I am wrong.As the actual rate of withholding is 15% of the sales price, and as the refund (if any) would be "within 90 days", it can be a major setback for my company´s flipping cash-flow because 15% is way higher than the taxable income (and of course than the tax itself), so we would be in the necessity of capital injections to flip the next properties.If any of you have comments on this, it would be very helpful.Thanks in advance
