From what I understand of present IRS rules, you're allowed to earn up to $250k on your primary residence and pay no capital gains tax.

Many tenants/buyers also had the impression the rent payments were reducing their purchase price in some way...so they've paid $5000 down, and $1000/month for 24 months so they think they now have equity of $5000+$24,000, but those were rent payments while they were leasing. 

It'll take you around 30 months (or 2.5 years) to start to see the financial benefits.If you're walking with cash-out plus reducing your monthly by $300, then it's great.

This will slow your rent up rate, but your will reduce your headaches by about 80%.6. 

There is a limit on IRA contributions, it is $6,000/year and you can only contribute earned income.

The laws are pretty simple so I'm not seeing what you're getting so confused about and I have no idea what other "solution" would be beneficial to anyone.If you want to earn money assisting a seller in selling their property you need to be licensed to do so in all 50 states.If you want to buy a property then resell it later you do not need to be licensed to do so.

Just because someone said it on the internet doesn't mean it's good advice.I use credit cards to earn points.
