Real estate investing (buy and hold for rentals) is a more passive strategy aiming for long-term cash flow and wealth growth, unlike flipping which is an active, short-term income-generating business with higher risks and taxes.
"The goal is to be done in 90 days in and out when you bought this property as an investor I going buy this property for $200,000 my goal will now be to rent this property out for say $2,000 a month my goal here if I bought this property all cash it will be to take the $24,000 I'm making a year $2,000 a month time 12 $24,000 a year and only spend about $110,000 a year in expenses that will be $144,000 a year in profit that's coming in year after year after year without me having to do anything because it would be a more passive investment because I would hand over the keys to a property manager and then my goal will be to hold on to this for as long as possible maybe I could sell it in a few years but at the very least holding it for at least a year but really the goal is to buy it and hold it that way you can make cash flow month after month after month year after year after year"

Rental income from real estate investing is taxed differently and offers more deductions (like depreciation) compared to the ordinary income tax rates applied to profits from real estate flipping.
"if you go out and you flip a property you make $100,000 you're going to be taxed at ordinary income tax rates it'd be the same taxes you pay if you made the $100,000 from a job but if you earn that money as a real estate investor because you're getting the rental income your tax a little bit differ you qualify for different tax deductions you also qualify for different tax write-offs this is one of the reasons why Real Estate Investors love investing in real estate is because of these tax deductions because as as a real estate investor when I go out and I buy a property I get a lot of deductions for example I get a deduction which says my property is one year older so I deserve a write off you don't get that when you go out and try to flip a property this is called depreciation deduction"
Tax Implications of Real Estate Income
Pending
Rental properties build long-term wealth by providing continuous passive income that is not dependent on active work, unlike flipping which stops generating income when the activity stops. The strategy allows for stacking multiple properties to increase monthly profit.
"because that flipping is just an income if you stop flipping you stop getting paid which you still got expenses to pay you still got to pay for your house you still got to pay for your car you still got to pay for your groceries you still got to pay for your vacations and if you're not flipping properties you stop getting paid which is why you want to have these assets that continue to pay you and the nice thing about rental properties is you can work to stack them because there's no limit to how many properties you can own I mean if you own one property and it's paying you $400 a month in profit if you buy another one next year that's an additional $400 a month if you buy a third in year three that's an additional $400 a month and if you do one a year Well in 5 years you'll have $2,000 a month in profit coming in from your rental properties but it starts with one and if you keep working to stack you can just keep working to stack the cash flow"

A successful real estate investor buys properties with margin and prioritizes cash flow over predicting home price movements, ensuring profitability even during economic downturns or falling home prices by adjusting rents.
