I’m trying to weigh my options, and could use help to decide the best path forward. 

Id definitely allot yourself an extra couple weeks though for your calculations.

Quote from @Henry Clark: Quote from @Jake Andronico: Quote from @Arn Cenedella: @Jake AndronicoI’ve looked into them but have never executed one.Let me say they will be expensive and complicated.I think what you will find if one is trying to defer $50,000 to $100,000 in gain, it’s not going to be worth the time and trouble.On the other hand, if client is trying to defer gain of $500,000 to $1,000,000, it’s worth the time and trouble.I use First American Exchange for my own account a dozen times and they have been right on the money.Google them and reach out.ArnIt's definitely more expensive than a traditional 1031 exchange, but being able to secure properties upfront can be super convenient.   

You should definitely buy a property and give/rent out rooms to the homeless and disadvantaged.

Ridiculous I know, but definitely not noticeable to the naked eye.

Offering definitive opinions about courses you haven't taken is like reviewing restaurants you've never eaten at.I think it's important to acknowledge that every land educator has contributed value to the field.

But if you’re questioning whether your condo will keep appreciating the way you want, and you’re set on staying in real estate investing, a 1031 could definitely be worth exploring.

This could create a disdain for flipping properties and not continuing on the path..The other option could be wholesaling it to start a path to build a war chest to go out and do the first flip with your own money down. 

When you celebrate success and prioritize building relationships, you'll find that your network expands, your reputation soars, and the path to wealth becomes even more prosperous.

We own both here and it's definitely cheaper for us to pay the HOA dues. 2.
