Is there a way to borrow against my stocks without being margin called or can can I possibly use my stocks as collateral and if so how would that work?

To the especially nervous investor, then, I would suggest one more metric to pay attention to: rent margin of error.

Lesson learned from 2021: The most important aspect of an investment is a margin of safety.2022 Goals: $1 million + in net new assets, $2 million + in real estate acquiredHow about you?

@Amit DesaiIf quick cash and above average profit margins attract your interest you might want to do what I’ve done for 20 years.

These often have very high margins. 

In conclusion, pretty slim margins on this deal.

To add to my first question- What is a good profit margin to expect on a flip house?

It could cost you more in current taxes than if you did nothing.The WA LLC pays and deducts mortgage interest.The WY LLC receives the mortgage interest and pays taxes on the interest at marginal rates.If the WA LLC is a passive investment activity with suspended losses, you will globally pay interest (via the WY LLC) that you wouldn't have otherwise needed to pay yet.If the WA LLC has positive income, then it's a wash.If the property is new and you want to shift money from one pocket to another for the next 27.5 years with no real benefit to yourself, have at it.  

And is there a significant margin to protect you form the downside?

- I see syndications making 1% margin for exit cap rate considering potential recession.
