One point of clarity on your statement about the Opportunity Zone incentive being a tax deferral and not tax free:   It's actually both. 

With the market being more competitive now, margins technically SHOULD slim a bit for those looking to flip. 

But for my cash budget of 400k, (w/o getting hard money...) it’s slim pickings.

I don't want to make this a long post so I will cut to the chase and I'm looking for some clarity on how I can keep everything "in house".

When I see houses in C areas in need of rehab being advertised as 150 a square foot by wholesalers as well as on the MLS, it makes me realize it will likely be slim pickings for a while.   

I appreciate the clarity, preciseness, and professionalism put into Ashcroft's materials. 

I had a moment of clarity that could potentially open up to a great idea. 

I think we are 4-6 months from having any tangible clarity and we'll only know the bottom after it's passed. 

My margins in the deal were slim in a market of feast.

However, we are all here to ask questions and help one another gain clarity.
