I recently learned that if you owner occupy a residence for part of the 5 previous years before sale, and you rent it for the remaining time, you can calculate the percentage of time the property was owner-occupied (and thus qualifies for the sec. 121 primary sales tax exemption of up to $250k for single filers) vs the time it was being rented (which qualifies for 1031 exchange) and claim both benefits. https://hcsequity.com/blog/combining-1031-exchange-with-121-....How does this work for a multi-family?

I'm never a fan of over-paying, but some markets have remained "overpriced" for decades. 

If you buy properties in a city where rent increases don't outpace inflation, you can't achieve financial freedom—no matter how many properties you acquire.For example, suppose you buy enough properties to generate $5,000/Mo, which replaces your current income.

A window that does not remain in the open position when raised isn't a situation where it must be replaced... it can be fixed in most cases, quite easily. 

An example would be a realtor brokerage that buys a mixed-use house in a downtown area, uses the main area for the brokerage office, and subleases/rents any remaining space to other businesses/tenants.

The September 2024 report from the Austin Board of REALTORS® (ABoR) shows housing prices in Austin and the greater metro remained fairly stable over the past 12 months.

However, challenges remain, particularly with balancing environmental concerns and ensuring that new developments cater to lower-income families.

Hi everyone, I am interested in hearing everyone's thoughts on the Platform Pacaso, I have noticed that it can inflate housing prices in some areas due to them being less concerned about paying a low price upfront and more focused on the overall profit they can generate through fractional sales and ongoing services. 

I remain positive that everything will work out!
