@Amber Gonion The concept you are referring to is "tacking" consecutive owners' possession together to meet the adverse possession time requirements and as far as I know there is some recognized variation of it everywhere.

Its the same concept for BRRRR's .  

As far as the concept of coaching goes, the location of the program is irrelevant. 

If you did Not do a 1031 at all, I don’t see where the concept of boot comes in.....you pay your regular cap gains and dereciation recapture just as if you never heard of a 1031, but only a year later, in your case, I believe.Where is that Dave guy anyway?

So i never understood the concept of using banks money instead of yours?

One very hard concept is the HELOC if you don't live there it is called a cash out refinancing. 

Simplified to clear the concept. 

#1 -  the concept of a HELOC (borrowing against equity whenever you want, up to limits) is fine and I agree that from what is posted this solution may be a good fit, but #2 - if you go to a bank and try to get a HELOC, I am 95% sure you rental properties won't qualify.

The best they could do was regurgitate a bare handful of basic concepts they took outsized pride in having wrapped their tiny brains around. 

The concepts of home and hearth form a deep, integral part of human psychology.
