    Just came across your videos. Very good personal experiences/tidbits your sharing. Very much appreciated. As far as capital gains taxes, in a situation where your building a small relatively simple house that could be sold before a year of even owning the land, have you experienced holding/renting it out over the 1 year mark to pay lower capital gains vs taking a bigger short term tax hit?

    A lender telling you about another client's business practices is a huge red flag for that lender. Unless the builder's business practice has been so bad that the lender has officially declared they won't lend if you're hiring that builder, the lender telling you anything about them is a breach of confidence that the builder would be entitled to sue them for.

    • @tealkerberus748
      @tealkerberus748 8 місяців тому

      Learn to be a builder. Even if you're not physically able to do the manual work, you can be the person in charge - design the house, calculate all the quantities, get all the permits and approvals, schedule everything, buy everything, choose and schedule all your trades, the works. You'll understand by the end of it why builders charge so much to build a house, but if you do it right you'll get your house cheaper. The course I'm doing is 12 months part time study for people who have experience in the building industry already, but you'll need to find out what's available in your area.
