Maybe the point of each doing so much rehashing is to help get past the internal sabotager that each or us has.

You could still 1031 Exchange at that point, but would not qualify for the tax-free exclusion under Section 121 of the Internal Revenue Code.

I was wondering if anyone knows any potential real estate investment clubs or anyone in the Phoenix, Arizona area looking for a real estate intern?

The problem we have is we don't have a lot of income, we work for an international non profit, and are concerned we will not be able to qualify for FHA or commercial.  

@Josh Sabourin Run the numbers man.Total rent cost scenario = rent due every monthTotal own cost scenario = PITI due every month, + utilities, - interest tax deduction, - principal reduction, - avg YoY appreciation/12, - forced appreciation (if you fix it up.)For example, a completely made-up scenario where the numbers are made-up but demonstrate a very real principal:Total rent cost scenario = ($1500) Rent = $1500 true internal monthly costTotal own cost scenario = ($2300) PITI + ($250) utilities - $150 interest deduction - $450 principal reduction - $300 [2% YoY/12months] - $150 [Assuming $9,000 of value added from improvements divided over five years living in home] = $1500 true internal monthly costOnce you've calculated your total liability for each scenario, then you should weigh out the non-tangible benefits of each:Renting - increased mobility, limited responsibility for repairs and things, lower up-front out-of-pocket cost.Owning - Net worth of owners across the US has been shown to be much greater than renters.

Everything else has to come internally - wanting to do a good job; wanting to build your own business; wanting to leave a legacy for your kids; etc.
