Just note that you guys may end up in what I call the "1031 exchange until you both die" cycle.

I looked into this at more than one occasion, because Milwaukee has such an old housing stock, everything is 60-120 years old.Most of the new apartments we see are 4 and 5 star developments with very high rents, this allows to offset the high cost of construction a little better.

paid cash from a 1031 Exchange How did you add value to the deal?

The buyer got an affordable home in exchange for doing the repairs himself (sweat equity), I got a cashflowing note, and my private lender got a steady interest payment.

After selling one and using a 1031 exchange to buy a fourplex in Chicago, he reduced his interest burden by 20% while boosting his net incomes by $1,500 per month.

I just want to compare the real estate and stock market investment.

Take stock of your current credit score and accounts.

A better option would be to partner with someone who can bring the capital needed in exchange for you contributing your time, labor/effort, and expertise.

I’m excited to exchange ideas and see where we can take your portfolio!
