As you're talking to hundreds of people, many items will start to blend together and you can easily end up with "deal merge." 

I can put together a nice deal with an investment grade tenant and originally planned to do a blend and extend on, but now am thinking I might assign it or do a double closing.Also, any recommendations for good attorneys would be appreciated.Thank you!

But also possibly not dealing with a blended family either. 

We went with a blend of your suggestions.

Calvin, as a commercial insurance broker I can tell you that you will create more issues "blending" your Irrigation Consultation biz with the rentals.

Thomas, it's interesting how real estate investing and hospitality have began to blend in the last few years.

I insure through Proper Insurance, basically they have a blended commercial & residential insurance product.

Because you can immediately refi that whenever you want to buy your next property.So if you are someone who loves maximum leverage you can still do that but without the restrictions of the 1031.If you are someone who wants to be more risk averse you split your properties between those with minimal leverage and those with maximum leverage and then enjoy a blended rate that is in between the two.

None of these connections happened for me overnight, it took many years and a lot of false starts...but after awhile everything started to blend together and all the different avenues for connections started to feed into each other and my network began to grow exponentially.
