Quote from @Devin James: When running numbers on an investment property, I focus more on equity growth than monthly cash flow.Here’s why:If I can acquire a property at a low basis and add significant value, I can: 1) Sell and reinvest elsewhere 2) Cash-out refinance to recapture my investment.

As a broker, I "buy" a mortgage at a discount from a direct wholesale lender, then mark it up and "sell" it to my client to make a profit.

Either way it would be a grey area, selling a house with a different amount of units/bedroom/bathroom seems extreme though. its an auction site, I have seen auction sites miss the fact there was additional lots in a sale.

It’s the number of months it would take to sell all homes currently on the market at the current pace of sales.

I would sell then buy in a better location. 

Your current single-family property has a $1,000 monthly out-of-pocket expense—consider selling and using a 1031 exchange to acquire a multifamily property with better cash flow.

They will let you sell the trailer as long as the cash flows back thru them.  

Early on in my career, I saw a close frend do something similar.. she borrowed from her circle to finance a rural fixer-upper, then paid them back once she refinanced after the rehab.I’m guessing that massive yard plus the barn is already a big selling point for your tenant, especially with a family that wants a little extra room for animals.

In regards to tenants, to putting the house on Section 8, to the selling of the property.

Hello,I’m looking for guidance on if a 1031 exchange is applicable in my situation.I currently own a single family rental property that I’m planning on selling.
