But if you think appreciation has stalled or capital expense might be lurking then a 1031 is better than just a sale because you get the compounding effect of the deferred tax working for you not the government.

Local government is landlord friendly and taxes and cost of living are lower.

I am working on a few deals in three separate markets where the federal government has selected my client's bid to lease their building and was trying to find my client a lender who would provide 100% Loan to cost for the deal.

Look up the rules for Georgia (google it and look at the government website). 

I've personally worked with a handful of "investor-friendly" lenders, primarily on DSCR loans in recent years, and each time I've run into significant delays, lack of transparency about the process, have been fed the requirements in a piecemeal fashion (every few days there's a new random request rather than having it all organized from the start), and have even run into lenders who were substantially misinformed about the real estate industry or the laws that govern it on both a local and federal level.I think there should be a better site to encourage accountability by tracking how long it actually takes each lender to close their loans on average, and what unexpected hurdles investors encounter when trying to work with them.I can't seem to find such a site.

Here are a few reasons I want to move into this industry: I love property (and would love to own it around the world), I enjoy spending time with family and traveling, I want a more flexible life down the line so I can spend more time doing the things which are important to me.I am looking for someone in the UK or European market and would like to have a stimulating conversation with you to learn more, and I would love to offer my time and energy to help you towards your business.

They are application fees, plan review fees, maybe/maybe not impact fees (tens of thousands of dollars paid to the local government so you can develop a raw land), permitting fees, rezoning fees if rezoning is required. 3.)

Some plans include house hacking, seller loans, flipping, creative deals, private cash, group deals, sweat equity, and government help.

The government of Florida (and other states) require building inspections and money be set aside (Reserve Funds) to fix problems so that things like balconies crashing to the ground doesn't happen.Her HOA has underfunded their reserves.
