For those of us who may prefer an adult beverage while we talk RE, I checked our Sam's Boat in Silverlake Village yesterday afternoon at around 2pm and they have nice covered deck area where we can chat.

@Sam Shueh I would agree that granite is a better option here...it has become extremely cheap.

@Sam Besong in theory it is possible, but the reality is the timing is too short to get a loan. 

I wouldn't hold onto a property that's not producing cash flow, and given then you already have some good appreciation locked in and it's likely we're nearing the top of this cycle, I'd cash out, bypass Uncle Sam with the 1031, and start building your portfolio in a more cash-flow friendly market .You're in a good position, but it could be even better ;)If you have any questions about the snowball method I mentioned above or the Birmingham market, feel free to reach out any time.
