Jonathan We have similar views but a completely different execution strategy.

@Jake AndronicoI’ve looked into them but have never executed one.Let me say they will be expensive and complicated.I think what you will find if one is trying to defer $50,000 to $100,000 in gain, it’s not going to be worth the time and trouble.On the other hand, if client is trying to defer gain of $500,000 to $1,000,000, it’s worth the time and trouble.I use First American Exchange for my own account a dozen times and they have been right on the money.Google them and reach out.Arn

I think Duluth is a good if not great market but it means nothing if you can't execute.

PM staff meets me there with the keys and says, yeah we told the owner, but he did not want to pay for anything that exceeded the cash flow.I talk to him, he wants out. 

Investment product marketers who claim to be GPs, GPs who claim “ownership”, insurance salesman who claim to be “financial advisors”, people who attended an executive training program claiming to have an MBA, what ever happened to honesty?  

They risk their commission if they do not execute one.  

I understand most of their mentees come by referral, which says a lot about them - though I too found them on Craigslist.So, the four of them, plus their support staff and "volunteer" co-mentors is all they use to teach, demonstrate, mentor and coach. 

Hi @Adam Mayberry Do yo know anyone that has successfully executed SB9 lot splits in Los Angeles city?

Education first, then execution. 

Congrats on the execution.
