I was exploring the opportunity to capture equity from a property I purchased a few years prior (1031) while increasing cash flow to our portfolio.

I'm willing to exchange my home improvement services for the opportunity to learn the process from someone who's already doing it successfully.If you're in Connecticut and interested in sharing your knowledge or have advice for a newcomer like me, please reach out.

They often hope you'll go easy on the screening process in exchange for some extra money.

I'll get right to the point: I'm not sure how much I need to reinvest to do a 1031 and how much of a purchase price I need to purchase at.

From structured breakout networking sessions to quick business card exchanges in the hall ways of the hotel, it seemed every corner you looked there was a business plan or partnership forming right in front of you creating a sense of urgency to join the crowd! 

Since I am familiar with stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) already, I thought why not give it a shot and see what is in for me in this industry?

Take for example, if I wanted to use my proceeds to do a 1031, can I even do that if my name wasn't on anything.

You are better off exchanging into an SFR, multifamily or DST investment depending on how much you have to invest. 

Can a HYSA work the same as doing 1032 Exchange?

After obtaining 3 or so properties over the years, i would love to 1031 the properties for a bigger multi family that will cash flow.
