Selling and exploring a 1031 exchange could make sense if you can find a deal with stronger cash flow or faster equity growth, but the key is comparing your current return to what your skill and experience could generate in another investment.Here to help,Jorge

Quote from @Jay Fayz: Hello everyone,I've recently been exploring real estate as a potential career path and I'm looking for advice on the best entry-level job to gain experience and knowledge.

I got into RE investing utilizing the same strategy as you're exploring.

However, I am not closed to the idea of exploring other markets! 

From the architectural wonders of Downtown to the tranquil, family-friendly communities on the outskirts, there’s always something new to explore and learn.The city’s constant evolution means different investment opportunities are always surfacing, whether it's the push for sustainable living or a growing emphasis on smart home technology.

Start by exploring books, YouTube channels, market research, and analyzing trends in neighborhoods.

Your financial position is strong, and leveraging financing for your next rental while maintaining a conservative debt-to-income ratio is a smart approach—consider consulting a lender to explore options that align with your goals and keep your investments sustainable.

I also have few loans with flagstar and would like to explore changing from personal name to LLC.

Since you’re already in the LTR space and looking to grow, have you considered leveraging your commercial expertise to explore multifamily properties?

Lenders often consider the whole picture, so keep building that credit but don't let it hold you back from exploring options.Since you're considering a trailer to fix up, have you thought about markets like East Phoenix or the outskirts of Austin?
