I have been told by one very reputable RIA and a separate 1031 company that after I have been in the REIT for at least 1 year that I can pull up to my original basis out of the REIT without triggering any capital gains tax. 

I hoped bigger pockets could connect me with someone who could help me dive into the real life details without the normal youtube spin trying to sell a book or program.From what I've read flex spacing is a small retail/office space attached to warehouse space that can be separated into different sizes depending on the tenant needs. 

This is true whether those clients were on the optional recordkeeping program or not.I don't have a lot of details and am not personally involved in this program, but I have experience with SEPiraK separately and they are a quality operation.You can reach out to info at sepirak com to learn more.

It is a separate service and it costs more, often a lot more.

It is usually stated as “75% (or whatever LTV they lend to) of appraised value or purchase price, whichever is less”In your case with the POHs, the appraisal will be separated into land value and POH value.

You'll need to get a good investor friendly CPA, possibly an LLC, bookkeeper, umbrella insurance coverage, separate bank account for rental. 

If you can separate them and potentially buy your own meter you can save big bucks and it will solve the problem.

Ideally I would like to keep my personal finances separate from my REI. 

We let it ride & then found it was her brother going through a tough separation so occasionally he needed to get away. 

How do you separate yourself from your competition?
