Quote from @Jim Miller: I hold a Florida real estate license.

Investment Info:Townhouse buy & hold investment in Devils Elbow.

SFD vs condo vs 2-4 unit, hold vs flip, turnkey vs rehab, passive vs active...it really comes down to each individual property/opportunity, what your goals with the property are, and if the numbers make sense or not.Best of luck!

The full proceeds of the sale would be viewed as equity and I would need to hold (intermediary account) and invest that full amount into the exchange property?

I think you are going to end up having to partner to hold or sell.

It’s awesome to see your enthusiasm for long-distance investing and buy-and-hold rentals—it’s a smart strategy that can work well with the right systems in place.

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment in Banning.

Another path might be a short-term solution like a bridge loan to fund your next acquisitions while holding off on a full refinance until rates or terms improve.Given your goals to scale rapidly, keep an eye on maintaining cash flow while growing.

Primary markets will continue to hold their value though tough to make them cash flow.

Investment Info:Large multi-family (5+ units) buy & hold investment.
