Lends creadance to the idea maybe in today's markets, it's dead.  

For me, I’ve been testing a few different methods recently, but I’m always looking for new ideas to take my wholesaling game to the next level. 

Reeti, Great idea in checking on this aspect of the process.

For the most part, I think I understand the basic idea of a 1031 Exchange.

@Marie CopulHunker down and pare down your lifestyle expenses as much as possible so you can replace what you need as quickly as possible.I did have a client take down a 57 unit mixed use apartment deal that added $1.1M to his net worth and $180k a year in cash flow in 12 months but those types of results are not typical.However, some type of commercial real estate would be my suggestion and one where you are driving the ship so you keep most if not all the equity.I have some ideas for you and would be happy to talk you through them.

can also confirm - seeing some mid term tenants flirt with the idea of moving to Memphis. funny no one is buying in Stanton, though.

I just recently came up with the idea to BRRRR too so I'll see what she says about finding these significantly cheaper properties. 

So for now have abandoned the idea.

I don't love the idea of having prepayment fees and a mortgage on my free and clear property but if I do a combination of things I would be able to make an above garage apartment at house 3 for 15k-20k that rents out for $1100-$1300.

My approach is when there is that much unreliable information, I either call it a day and walk since I have no idea what comes next or I negotiate to a super deal so that whatever I haven't been told can be taken care of.
