what is your tax strategy during buy-and-hold growth phase?
As the subject questions; what is the most effective tax strategy during the buy and hold growth phase? While working to grow and add additional properties, would it be a good idea not to report any expenses to your CPA, versus reporting all/as many expenses as possible in order to reduce your tax burden? All of the topics I've researched here cover how to reduce the amount of tax you pay in regards to your RE business, but that can hinder ones ability to obtain financing. Of course lenders want to review two years' returns, and the more profit showing on your returns the better when calculating DTI.
I am working to find the proper balance in order to continue growing my portfolio.
