I feel a loss of direction and that makes it really hard for me to focus and build.Do we keep at building a portfolio of small multi family (very abundant in my market, very rare to find anything above a triplex for sale), with plans of selling the portfolio and 1031'ing into larger properties? 

Their customer service department is very responsive.When selling a service as taking care of everything and handling the complete process, this includes all forms, liabilities and considerations for that particular need.

Exit Strategy: What’s your plan if you can’t refinance or sell the property after 24 months?

Could be different if you are working with a bank that do not sell the loans they make 

Sell your car and get a loan on a new car.

In exchange, I have first rights to sell the property through a power of attorney. once it sold, the seller get his agreed price, and I get the rest.

I have about 100k in assets both personal and business I could sell, but part of me thinks that’s extreme and I’ll sell “myself” along the way with all my stuff.  

They may sell in a few years when interest rates drop or keep it longer term as cash flow on the property improves!

What questions should I ask to understand the property’s condition and the heir’s willingness to sell?

Could you put it on a CC and pay it off within the billing cycle with either your income or selling some stock if absolutely necessary?
