QI failures can fall into several categories: scammers who steal money or information, ineffective operators who can blow your Exchange and get the IRS after you, weak QI infrastructures that don't have adequate insurance or safety protocols against outside fraudsters, etc. 

@Shiloh LundahlTheoretically assuming properties were identical in every sense yes because I don’t need cash flow and would rather have the extra $100k in equity.Now $600/mo could get you another $100k mortgage to get you another property that could potentially also cash flow but for me personally I am in equity play mode now income mode - just my personal choice but nothing wrong with the other scenario

The Disney market is mature with a lot of developments of identical houses.

It’s very hands on for most owners (high turnover employees  and employees stealing bc of cash sales) so as long as that’s something you’re willing to do it’s likely a great option for you. 

*a near identical house (same blueprint) was built next door and has not sold for 8 months.

. $1.67m.You might say "that's bs, the offices are identical!"

Rentals do good, but screen, lots of scammers for LTR, and STR can get the entitled wealthy for Orange County who are messy and destroy and steal stuff. 

The idea that you can build wealth without putting any money into it is a recipe for disaster and the sales pitch of gurus trying to steal your money.

They are unethical, steal from owners and guests alike.

There's a reason why there are so many almost identical real estate skip trace services out there with minimal or no difference in their offering or pricing.I began researching skip trace data and services in 2014 and started Skip Genie in 2017.
