Also that syndication is a whole other beast, and while there are tremendous benefits from starting a syndication, like taxes, acquisition fees, sharing the work load, etc, the risks are that much bigger.  

@Matthew Brown If you don't mind diversifying your real estate portfolio there is a way to take advantage of both financing options and all of the benefits of the 1031 exchange.There is something known as a diversification exchange that allows you to sell your relinquished property and purchase multiple replacement properties.

Therefore anyone with bank originated construction debt or bridge debt is likely happy right now with the rate cut and narrative surrounding future cuts since in many cases these are adjustable rate loans with floors we likely won't see anytime soon.It will be interesting to see whether this cut gets banks who have been on the sidelines back into the market or alternatively some lenders who have continued to lend but with tighter underwriting to ease their guidelines.

I am far from a financial advisor (which I hope you have a good one), but there are a lot of benefits to diversification and investing in RE. 

It sounds like you would benefit from hiring a real estate agent to represent you.

On top of that, the tenants are lower-quality, so it takes more work to maintain communication, enforce the lease, etc.In my experience, the additional work and eventual losses erase any benefits of Section 8.

However, Southern California—particularly cities like Los Angeles, San Diego, and coastal communities—benefits from a warm climate and constant demand, which helps to mitigate seasonal slowdowns.

Hey Terrance, I'm glad to connect with you and could be of benefit in any areas you may need assistance with.

If the owner isn’t interested in a cash sale, the agent can then provide a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) and discuss the benefits of listing the property on the MLS.A key point to remember: You do not need to sign a listing agreement with that agent just to receive a cash offer.
