I have one property bought with hard money. It balloons soon so I could just sell and use the profit to move into my next deal. But if I can refi and pull equity i think that would be better. I don't have a w2 income. I work many odd jobs, have the rent income, and work as a re agent. It seems like I don't qualify for most(if any) loans of any sort. At least not yet. What should I do? 

Quote from @Eliott Elias:

Include interest in the loan, it is a lot safer if the lender puts a lien on the property & you have a promissory note written up. It will show the IRS the loan is legit. 


 Got it all taken care of. Wrote the loan up and included the interest. Everything is above board. And more importantly I gained great knowledge and resources from yall. Thank yall again for the help.

Check AFR is what it is called, I think right now it’s around 4% so anything less I still believe that’s what she will pay for taxes


 Thank yall so much. Yall have been a huge help. 

Quote from @Ashish Acharya:

She has to charge you interest. If not, she has to pay imputed interest on the payment you make. You can pay interest at the end when you refi and draw up the debt agreement in such a way that you don't have to pay interest until you pay off the loan. 

The taxes she owes will only be on the imputed interest/interest portion. 

So since she doesn't want to charge me interest can it be/should it be a minimal amount just to satisfy the IRS? 0.5 or 1%

My aunt is loaning me cash to buy a property. I have two years to pay her back. She's charging me 0% interest. My plan is to rent the property until I can refinance it through a bank with payments to her along the way of $200 a month and a balloon at the end when I refinance the property. Of course I can't get ahold of my cpa and my closing has already been pushed back once. I'm curious to know how the loan should be drawn up. And if/how much taxes she will owe since she isn't making money on this transaction. Only getting back what she's put in. Also what taxes fall on me other than property taxes. I'm in Ga. Likely searching for a new cpa.
