I think someone had mentioned that if you sell more than 6 homes in a year you were declared to be a ‘dealer’ (by IRS? State?)
Is there a way to find a distressed property and turn it over to an investment buyer without doing a double-closing… so as to avoid the appearance of having bought so many homes in one year?
How about some sort of Consultant contract with the Investment Buyer ahead of time that gives some sort of protection that they won’t just approach the Seller themselves and cut you out of the picture? I’m guessing laws regarding free-trade or something might prohibit that.
So would all this mean you MUST enter into a “Contract to Buy” with the Seller every single time and go through a double-close escrow always?
