I don't know if this is for you, but my husband and I have mentored quite a few investors in Canada and helped them purchase their own multifamily. 

Purchase price: $17,000 Sale price: $27,000 Contributors: Peter Vekselman Partner Driven and Archie Raglin acquired this property on 1/3/2025 for $17,000 and sold it the same day for $27,000.

What would be the best loan option for purchasing another property under my name that I’ll be moving into as my new primary residence? 

I saw how that proposal is basically her giving me a 0% loan, but at the same time I believe that structure will avoid her taking a large loss (approximately 30k if she accepts a 300k offer).I do not know why she doesnt get a PM, I only share the facts of when she purchased it, the purchase price, and the reasoning she shared with my realtor as to why she is selling after such a short time period.

How to track potential growth in an area to see if a lot is viable for purchase and building spec homes on etc. 

I also purchased these while residing in CA!

I am in the same boat of either 1031 exchange or refi some of my small multi's to purchase a larger complex.

I have a followup question - I will realize a lot of capital gain from this home in Idaho, so I think unless I purchase a new primary residence I will have to pay that capital gains tax. 

The only two ways to rectify this are (1) purchase the property far below market price or (2) significantly increase the property net income usually through some method of “repositioning”. 

Quote from @Jacob Campbell: Hello - After listening to the podcast, I've made a commitment to purchase a rental property by the end of Q2 this year (ideally by the end of Q1).
