Is there a way for us to exchange information?

You don’t kill your whole exchange.

If the property doesn't appraise you are then overpaying for the property in exchange for a turnkey experience."

You will have to 1031 exchange.

I remember working with a client a couple of years ago who wanted to do a 1031 exchange into Phoenix multifamily.. they had some numbers in mind, but no framework beyond “I want more doors.”

For me in 2023:No LLC’s, 12 properties in 2 states, only 1 state income tax, no w-2’s, a pension and a 1031 exchange.I was charged $1,275, up from 2022 when I was charged  $1,175 but didn’t have an exchange.

If you started somewhere like Texas, where there's more appreciation, you could do this for 5-7 years then 1031 exchange those properties into higher yielding products that'll allow you to walk away from your job.

Total investment: $420k, with a 1031 exchange offsetting $300k. 

Possibly partner with a group but would only do money lending or group in exchange for gaining knowledge of how to independently do things.

And he was getting foreign investors to wire him 100% of the purchase prices direct to him..
