I do have monthly mortgages to be paid and not having rental income to offset my negative cash flow has been a learning experience and really trying to think of what options I have to have better success at this.

Depending on the loan amount for the new property, roughly a little over half of the gain could be deferred through the exchange.Without a 1031, they’ll face taxes on the entire gain, including federal capital gains tax (likely 15% based on their income), California state tax, and depreciation recapture, potentially totaling $130-150K.

I can get $7000 rental income per month total.

This is all depending on your credit and income meeting the guidelines of course.

Just make sure the bed/bath count is correct as it can affect the income drastically 

My other SFR notes have interest rates determined by the borrower's cash, credit score and income - so market rates or higher.I understand the difference in performing vs non-performing notes and that performing can become non-performing pretty easily. 

. $69k for a 3 unit with gross rents of $2k a month and total expenses of $800 a month which included management and capX.

.: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: having been a back room vendor for Montelongo  Vertucci  rich dad poor dad.I got to interact with hundreds of students.. its like anything RE related only a little worse than say RE agents .. 20% of RE agents make 80s of the income

Raised properties income from $2400 to $4300 and living for free in a massive 1600 sq ft 3 bedroom.

My plan for this year is improve my credit, get my real estate license (to increase my income on top of my W-2), possibly career transition into the property management space (to learn more), and save as much as possible and learn as much as I can.I’d love to house hack close to home but my area is so expensive it seems like it’d be close to impossible.
