I live in jersey but bought my property in Pennsylvania because jersey and NY are extremely expensive.  

I personally used Jon McGraw in the past and he is extremely knowledgeable in the field. 

And if you base an offer price on that, you'll likely have an extremely difficult time getting any traction. 

More importantly though, due to the extreme property appreciation over the past 4+ years I have somewhere between $600-$750K in equity in the property.

This is due to the extremely annoying TX 50a6 home equity laws.

A combination of extremely tough long term tenant protections and the economics of short term renting being a lot more attractive. 

Lastly, I am extremely open to working with investors, or obtaining private funds as well. 

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.DM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

Verify credit, employment, etc for you. 6) I would definitely want noise (quiet hours), guests, and treatment of common areas covered. 7) We've used Rent Manager as it focuses more on the financials which I think is super important.

This was extremely frustrating since he charges a pretty penny for closings.Based off my experience I would not recommend him for a 1031 transaction.
