Hello Guys,If I invest $ 1 Million dollar in a real estate development project and the net profit for this project is 100% or 1 million dollar , how much tax should I expect to pay for this profit?

Do you have any experience with other avenues of obtaining ownership, such as tax sales?

Love your analogy about turning your savings account into a money making machine....I have the same mental picture....all my little dollars are employees working every day to make money and bring it home at night.

I’d also consider taking an average monthly cost and just building that amount into your lease - I usually subtract a few dollars so no one can complain that you’re over-charging.

I've had the worst experience, I am reaching out to BP community in hope someone can help me.Any words of advice for a newbie to the real estate world on obtaining financing?

Their budget ... 600 thousand dollars !!!!!

I am starting to “drive for dollars” in these areas looking for abandoned properties and off market deals.
