@Kezia Edmonson, it's all about the valuations as @Jon Taylor mentioned.In your 1031 exchange you must purchase at least as much investment property as you sold in order to defer all tax. 

@Ali Mol In a lease-to-own agreement, the $1,666 monthly credit should be treated as a liability (deferred credit) rather than rental income, as it is allocated toward the purchase price.

Glad to have you as a part of this awesome community!

Some investor say well better to go for 15-30%+ uncapped returns and lose it a minority of the time than to only make 10-13% and lose anyway with this latest black swan event.

Trying to figure out whether is it worth transitioning my 2br 1ba 1100 sqft unit to midterm rental from long term rental in Renton WA?

I’m trying to find a way to get her SSN, any service that provides the SSN search?

But you should budget this in with the amount of capital you have.

It also means thinking ahead (will this home be a good rental if/when I move out, will this home have good resale if I need to sell it at any point). 

In terms of feedback from our team, we’re leaning towards buttoning down the hatches, keeping rent increases low, and focusing on maximizing occupancy in our New England markets.
