I just completed an exchange of a single family residence in Scottsdale to a single family residence in Durango, Colorado. 

land sale is in Northern PA, but we are currently NY residents. 

Improvements on property you own do not qualify.2.

I had planned on buying a new primary residence  that needs a rehab that i can get way under market value.

I just acquired one from a PM where they were charging a tenant a resident benefit package and a building protection plan.  

However, consider STR seasonality, local regulations, and management demands, and ensure your equity loan and new primary residence costs fit comfortably within your budget.

A professional manager can find qualified tenants who respect your home and handle day-to-day issues.

Thanks to everything I’ve learned from the podcasts, books, and this community, my wife and I currently own:A triplex in MaineA single-family rental in San AntonioA single-family primary residence in Las Cruces, NM, which will become a rental when we move in a few monthsFor context, I'm an active-duty Army officer with about 12 years left until retirement, and my wife works for a university in Boston.

I've finally found a property that could be a good fit for my primary residence- if I can get a good price on it.
