Well, I’ll concentrate in marketing in Florida, and when I need to grow my “farm” area I’ll let the CPA handle it.

Thank you.

Many investors go out of their comfort zone and state to do deals.

How do you handle income taxes when you have made flippings in several states?

I’m mostly talking about dealing with STATE income taxes when dealing with properties in multiple states.

This is an easy task for a tax preparer. They use tax preparation software with every state’s returns available.

if you are a “do it yourself” preparer, you might need to do some research to identity and secure the right forms. I don’t recommend it unless you are tax-sophisticated.

Doing business in several states can be quite complicated. Many states now have withholding requirements for nonresidents. If you hold more than one property in a single entity, you may be required to allocate income to each state based on a three factor formula. The income allocated to a state would include (based on the three factor formula) income from the sale of a property in another state.

Work with someone who is very comfortable with issues surrounding doing business in more than one state.
