I'm still in the process of growing my portfolio, but have heard others 1031 all their smaller properties into a larger building and have a property management company manage, OR, set up a seller financing deal with another buyer that gives you the cash flow you desire. 

A couple questions:1) Has anyone worked with local lenders like a local bank or credit union?

We both have experience in these types of issues and we are local to the Indy market.

It's not an insurance company/carrier. 

Should I reach out to local agents, wholesaler like New Western?

The only information I had to go on was with the last Lender informed me so maybe it was specific to the company they were with.

We worked with a lawyer over there who is a US ex-pat who created and registered a local LLC for us, which owns our properties.

If you file an eviction then it must be filed locally, if your LLC is sued they will sue locally. 

It’s worth reaching out to your local tax office to explore options.

has anyone had positive/negative results in dealing with a company called 212 Loans?
