My understanding is that any 'source of income" can have its own retirement options.

The IRS doesn't have a lot of hard rules about the type of loans (or source of loans) with a 1031 exchange. 

@Walter Moneypenny As a Professional Property Manager, we use many sources and avenues to find tenants for your owners.

I am a realtor licensed in NY and NJ, sourcing off market fix n flips, development and investment deals to investors and developers.

@Vinay M.Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder, etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

If you don't want to take out debt on the 1031 replacement property, then you can supplement $150K from the proceeds of the personal residence half -- or from any other source that you like.

I've been in Mortgage's for 25 years and have lots of money sources for flipping, investments and hard money.

If you can consistently source good deals, your numbers are accurate, and you're straightforward with people, you're absolutely golden. 

Hi Vishal- It is quite difficult to source lenders who will provide a loan amount under $100k.

I have been looking into other sources of income and thought of getting my mortgage brokers license.I am well connected in my market and am still relatively young at 24 with lots of friends and peers that will be looking to purchase their first homes soon.
