I have been looking at a couple of property management companies in the Columbus, Ohio market that can manage a 12 unit 1 bedroom 1 bath apartment, but it is difficult to narrow down on some of the best and not just in price, but in the quality service they provide.

Keep this letter just in case you will want to sell in the future if you do not want to sell right now.I hope this letter was not too much of a bother.

Hi Justin, I am interested in the answer to this question as well. 

@Justin Frye If you're an investor that is looking to grow your portfolio I'd recommend calling the smallest 5-10 banks and/or credit unions in your market.The portfolio lending arena is much more flexible than the conventional space in my experience.

Thanks,Dan I am going to assume you are just in your 20s based on your post.

Feel free to leave it here too just in case but do post in the other forum for the best responses. 

@Justin SumulongMany people on BP forums talk about many custodian it sounds you want a smaller more flexible company that can do both IRAs and HSAs.  

Just in case.... 

Of course some of us (looking at you Jay...ok, me too ;) aren't just in this to create retirement income, this is a career, so there's more of a cyclic, upward momentum where leverage and cash purchases each play a part.

But if you’ve got 40 or 50 grand and a strong legal team just in case it might be done.Might be better to refi B or sell without the 1031 and use the proceeds after tax to improve A.
