My point is cash has no exclusivity on being legally clean and far from it.

This is why it is important to have appropriate insurance and even more importantly making sure your actions are not listed under exclusions in coverage. 

Your only real question here is how much additional equity can you earn before you sell before the rate resets and before you lose your capital gains exclusion, versus the opportunity costs if you sold and cashed out now.

@Dion DePaoliWe do work almost exclusively in low value band assets under 125K values.

Each adult tenant over the age of 18 must fill one out.

Don’t waste time with buyers/sellers/borrowers that won’t give you an EXCLUSIVE; if you do you’re competing with every other financial intermediary or broker and even if you’re successful probably won’t get paid4.

They require you to sign an exclusive agreement with them.
