To me, if you aren't at least maintaining 0 cash flow, you're betting too much on appreciation to the investment work. 

I’m betting on it.  

But I wouldn't be surprised to see us settle in the low 6.00% range.I have some aggressive bets in stocks and long duration bonds that will benefit if/when that happens.

I bet, when you started investing,  this day seemed so far off it was silly.

I bet not many sponsors who are leaking oil would even consider that.. etc etc.. thye video'd it so you can probably ask them for a copy of it.

Is it possible to do a 1031 exchange and use the proceeds to buy a house using hard money, then refinance into a long term loan?

Chicago title in the day their customer service department kept a spread sheet for me of all the NODS in the 4 county market of Portland OR that is 3 Oregon counties and clark co was across the river.. this spread sheet which they updated daily would show address  lien position and property tax and any other judgements like IRS .. this was a service to garner my RE companies business I had 50 agents at the time working for me plus all my personal volume .. then I had a team of door knockers who started knocking doors ONLY within 7 days of the sale date ( as thats when people get really motivated to do something) Once a deal was struck ( we negotiated how much we were going to pay them and how long they could stay ( rent free mind you) the deal was done over the kitchen table cashiers check to them in exchange for a deed to me..

i am totally impressed with the way 'guru' out there trying to influence people promising there's a gold cave somewhere from 'infinite banking' to 'my own the greatest system ever' :-) I bet they save their money in the crypto token as well.

So if the partnership would not be allowed to purchase the entity together and I were to buy it, if we were to force our way down this road, would be to set up a legal agreement beforehand, I would buy the property since a partnership can not, and then the exchange for  ($$ + assigned roles + etc), my partner receives 50% equity?
