If the buyer meets the lender’s criteria, you should be good to go.

However, putting it all into a higher-quality property might give you more stable returns in the long run.In short, if you can find quality properties that meet your criteria, diversifying could be smart.

I don't think you qualify for a 1031. owning a property your mother lives in doesn't seem to meet the held for investment test necessary. 

I mistakenly took that to mean that there was integration between PropertyMeld and RentVine.

I Am new to investing and want to start early 2025 and connect with other KC investors.Is there a group locally That meets and worksTogether? 

@Edward HeavrinI’m all for having less properties if the cash flow meets your financial goals.

It's great to meet people from the Delaware Valley on this forum. 

You can set specific criteria to spot underpriced homes, distressed properties, or anything that’s flown under the radar.I know several investors have had more luck with using water shut off lists, so while it's more work, that might be an even better approach.One thing to note is that Privy compiles real-time MLS data and integrates public records, so you’re not just getting a snapshot of the listing status but a full picture, including owner history, property condition, and any price drops over time.That said, if your focus is primarily on expired listings, I'd also suggest checking out RedX—they’re known for their niche in expireds and FSBOs.

Some will allow it, however they will need to recast the loan and may require that you still meet the DSCR requirements on the total portfolio taking into account the property that was paid off.  

You can find real estate related careers, but they will pay less making you less lendable most likely.Go to local real estate meetups every month for six months and you will meet a lot of people who kept their job, left their job, flip homes, have rentals, and you can learn from them by building relationships while you earn.
