I've been in the commercial real estate sector for 20 years -starting when I was 18.

There are different values for SFH, condos, duplexes, 3-4 units, 5-8 units (some would say there are niche pricing in 5 units and 6 units), and 9+ unit buildings because of different factors for each sector.

I've been in the education sector for the past several years.

About 20 years in the sector.

Like folks in other sectors who build a start up and then cash out when it comes time.In both 1 and 2 you can create a team that takes on certain tasks so you change your specific job in the business.

My background is in the transportation sector. 

I'm completely new to this sector, but I've been listening to the BP podcasts every free/waking moment that I have, reading up the books and articles, networking, and running numbers for a couple of months here now. 

A refi will only compound cash flow issues.But you need to examine the impacts of selling and leaving the real estate sector now. 

A friend of mine owns a CRE design/build firm and asked if I could come aboard to help with a number of development deals in the aviation and energy sectors.
