The property that you sell and then purchase through a 1031 Exchange must be held for rental, investment (capital appreciation), or used in a business. 

Hi friends!  I have a LTR property in the Springs and it's in an LLC.   Do you know if I am able to get a HELOC on the property even though it's under an LLC?  If so, how did you go about finding a lender?

I wish you the best of luck building your business on another platform.  

There are a handful of active agents here on BP in the Portland area (including my business partner and I) who would be good places to start.

I see why they say, never go into business with family.

as one who grew up in the land business brokering land in Napa Sonoma Lake Mendo and humbolt counties..

They make their money off of real estate agents, but real estate agents are the worst people to make money off because they are highly unreliable and in and out of the business when the market changes.Their target should be the consumer with higher levels that they can subscribe too for data, since Zillow is linked to the MLS now which makes their data somewhere more reliable.

and they're difficult to do, because you're up against businesses that do nothing but flip and BRRRR, and here you come along wanting to do 1 home run right out of the gate. 

You cannot maintain a business with negative cashflow. 

Best bet though is a local community business bank..
