We have the drive to achieve whatever we put our mind to, the skills to create a very unique and desirable space, and the finances to back up our investment.

The success of that venture set the foundation for my career in real estate.

It seems this investment was incredibly successful for you, but the resale is most important.

I’m a full-time sales professional at a global GSI, so I’m seeking relatively efficient strategies.Has anyone successfully used cash-out refinances, 1031 exchanges, or other equity-based approaches to boost income?

@Emily Gowen so as you pointed out you would not have to do a 1031 exchange on your current home to avoid the capital gains tax and coupled with what Dave Foster pointed out I think, speaking from experience you would have a high likelihood of success. 

It is disheartening to witness a mentorship program that boasts substantial financial success, with students allegedly earning substantial monthly incomes, yet fails to ensure that their own employees receive even the minimum wage they are entitled to.

I am at this writing currently selling a 35 acre tract to a big developer who is converting the local golf course here in Oregon that was zoned Open space.. they have been successful in getting the rezone..

If you’ve got any success stories, lessons learned, or even cautionary tales, I’d love to hear them.Thank you for welcoming me to this amazing community.

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.You're feeling FOMO because you see people all over BP, YouTube, and Instagram bragging about their success.

The better your can run and manage that business the successful you will be.
