Tax Basics for the new investor

[Jessica Freese]

Hi,

I need to get a high-level understanding of how investing in RE is going to affect my tax situation.  Any suggestions for where to go for a primer, either online or books?  I currently do not have any W2 work, but my husband is 100% W2.  I'm looking primarily at buy and hold for now.  Thanks!

Have you checked out the book on taxes in the BP store?

The authors of the books have also been on the BP podcasts a few times and they have company websites that I've found useful to look at for understanding taxes a bit more.
