My bookkeeping firm provides me with a steady active income, which allows me to keep doing deals, cover unexpected expenses, and navigate the occasional black swan event.

Turns out, those special rules for 1031 exchanges in Oregon.. things like navigating tenant protections and timing constraints.. aren’t exactly set up to make your life easier.

@Monica Juarez-Gonzales Adding to prior note that @Michael Plaks has created the best resources and content, bar none, to help investors understand how to approach Cost Seg.

A lot of us are still here, but to be honest, it's pretty tough to navigate through the spam so things get lost in the shuffle.

Any competitive DSCR program is going to be in the 90-day seasoning range for allowing a refinance based on the newly appraised value.Your 9-month seasoning should not be an issue, barring an extremely unique situation (like inheriting a property or having it gifted to you).------------------------------------• 0-6 Months (Delayed Purchase, no Rehab completed) - up to 80% of purchase price• 6+ Months (Cash-Out Refinance, no Rehab completed) - up to 75% of appraised value• 0-3 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [good rates]• 3-6 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [best rates]

This definitely feels like a step up and I wanted to ask a few questions as I try and navigate this opportunity. 1.

To me knowing Detroit area like I do these days I would simply pass on any neighborhood that has bars and caged condenser units and this kind of theft I dont think there is much long term upside and just a ton of risk..

Also navigating town hall, we learned who calls the shots and who just thinks they do.Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

It's stupid, but we have to navigate it.

time to his the Oyster bar !!!
