Don't go for the cheapest (unless the price is lower because it is on sale), but also don't go for the most expensive. 

(The Black Friday sale on the Bigger Pockets bookstore was where I did my own Christmas shopping so my family knew what to ‘buy’ for me!).

@Jared CarpenterPhoenix is a strong market for home sales and the competition has been pretty strong for the last few years now as the markets have recovered greatly from 5-6 years ago.

Quote from @Emily Gowen: I only recommend investors sell when they can move the money to a better-performing investment or when the sale moves them closer to a specific goal.

We got out of condo conversions couldn't really sell any of them and transitioned to ground up development of single family homes and three story walkup triplexes on a build to rent model which is much easier for us to manage and our exit isn't a sale it's just a refinance.

I’m a full-time sales professional at a global GSI, so I’m seeking relatively efficient strategies.Has anyone successfully used cash-out refinances, 1031 exchanges, or other equity-based approaches to boost income?

I see a lot of 250-300k 3/2 for sale that are going to compete with the new builds, and that size is only renting for 1800-1900 to month max, so I find that the numbers don't work for me, or are very marginal at best.  

If the property we sell is in need of rehab we agree to take a portion of our assignment fee and fix up the property to make sure its rent ready.

Purchase price: $70,000 Cash invested: $60,000 Sale price: $70,000 Have under contract for $70K and will rehab.
