Trading Up: Multifamily homes to Apartment Complex
What exactly do you do when you "trade up" from multifamily homes to and apartment complex? I've read a bunch where people said they traded up and used the equity they had, does that mean they sell the multifamily homes and buy the apartment complex??
What are the actions of trading up?
