Consult an expert, but my understanding of a 1031 is that you can't pay cash for the next deal unless you paid cash for the original one.

I’m looking to purchase my first multi family home in the city of Colombus and am looking for the hard numbers, metrics I should be on the lookout for, and sample properties to get my hands wet as far as what’s considered a good deal and area to invest in.

Hi there,I’m fairly new to this community and to real estate investing.

My name and my daughter’s name(s) are also in title and the loan.I have really good equity in both properties (six figure) with great interest rates.At some point my daughters and their husbands will move out to upgrade to something bigger.I want to turn these properties into investment properties after my daughters move out:  thinking the best way is to convert in my name only.Also considering leveraging the equity in the properties to help buy new homes/townhomes for my daughters when they are ready as well.Wondering what the best strategies would be for me to expand property portfolio, minimize tax impact , create more passive income while continuing to help my family grow.I appreciate any advice! 

Happy investing! 

More business than investment.

You'll want to focus on securing a favorable financing deal at the refinance stage—ideally, you want to pull out as much of your initial investment as possible while keeping monthly payments manageable.A big consideration is understanding your after-repair value (ARV) and ensuring the rehab costs add value in proportion to that.

We typically keep as much liquid reserves on hand as possible, to boost the investment numbers and lower the risk, with liquidity risk likely being your largest risk in a real estate project.
