@Eric Helena, There is no statutory prohibition against purchasing from a related party to complete a 1031 exchange. 

I have every intent to complete my very first fix-and-flip project in 2025!

And what is your price range on the purchase price?

I am in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area and I am a new landlord, having purchased my first rental property about two and a half years ago.

A lot of it has to do with location and time.If they are local owners looking at 1-2 LTR properties, I'll assist with identifying cash flowing/near cash flowing properties, assist them in the purchase as their buyers agent and assist with tenant procurement, listing, etc. but they can typically handle day to day management from there.Furnished properties, whether that be MTR or STR, are a lot more involved, as I'm sure you're aware of!

Hi Jonathan, what is your buying criteria in GA and what counties are you looking to purchase in?

Purchased a little too high at the buy (I knew it at the time too), does a little better than breaking even on cashflow, and took too long to rehab.

Has anyone purchased Real Estate with cryptocurrency?

It's calculated as the ratio of your total loan amount (loan amount for purchase + loan amount for your rehab) to your total costs (purchase price + rehab budget). 95% is a good target.Avoid application and other upfront/junk fees. 

Typical equity build up time is 5 years, depending on your market.But can you purchase another rental using your own capital?
