My favorite sponsor is vertically integrated and local their portfolio.I also agree that historic levels (40-year highs) of inflation, interest rate increases, and government intervention is/are clear black swan events. 

=> my new favorite saying..

I've looked at a lot of condos and houses in the past few weeks and from being in the field I can tell you that the transaction volume is picking up again - a lot of places are going into contract and prices are holding up well.My two favorite investment opportunities right now are single family homes in the top areas that your budget can afford and condos in buildings that were launched 4-6 years ago, are now in the market and have a lot of selling pressure because people who bought pre-construction want to sell and take profits. 

Currently, there are a few ways to house hack in the Denver metro area and still live for free depending on your level of comfort.1) Rent by Room - personally, my favorite strategy, you buy a large house, live in one room, and rent out the other rooms.

My favorite workers are those with a day job doing x and do it for me for an affordable amount but usually aren’t licensed to pull permits.I got a tile guy to sign a contract he didn’t really read stating he was paying for all materials besides tile and grout and he will get $100 less per day if not finished by yesterday (it’s 80% done and the 10 days to finish 1000sf was generous).

I purchased my 1st from my parents using the creative financing called "Gift of Equity".

Maybe person #1 (with the loan) can just gift the funds to person #2 and have person #2 buy 1031 exchange property debt free?

But it does vary wildly - I work with a larger firm, we have in house professionals who focus 100% of their time on state and local tax / sales and use tax, various aspects of international, employee benefits, trusts, estates, gifts, etc, in addition to various industry focuses - and as a result we charge higher fees because there is a significant amount of very specialized knowledge floating around that is at our clients fingertips as they need it. 

I have a Guest Favorite badge, Evolve is Superhost, we have around 25 reviews, total 4.95 stars.

They are a great gift when it happens, but people rent because they want the flexibility or their lives are less stable.
