Hello, My wife and I are new to Bigger Pockets and are fairly novice real estate investors in Northern Maryland.

@Marie Thomas: Think 5x3 (or bigger) 2500sqft (or bigger).

@Monica James Welcome to Bigger Pockets. 

- If so, 1031 into something bigger and easier to manage and then when you pass, the inheritor receives your property(s) at a stepped up basis - subject to Inheritance Tax limits.Otherwise, sell one every 1-5 years when you need the cash, so you can plan expenses to offset capital gains.

I use bigger pockets to analyze my flip deals.

I have been listening to the Bigger Pockets podcast for years ever since I was in High school I have read a few of the classic real estate books.

The Long Distance Real Estate Investing book by Bigger Pockets is gold!

Been listening to bigger pockets for about a month now (literally everyday, at every moment I have spare time LoL) and am learning a lot.

But by coming together with others, one can get in the game and put their money to work in these bigger, potentially greater return deals without having to do it solo.

Why move and take on a bigger payment when you’re already locked into such a good deal?
