Exchange ideas or to talk local trends, always willing to meet and discuss real estate.

Let him know you require proof at exchange of keys.

Mat had contacted me a few days ago and we exchanged information.

Send me a message and we talk about the details and exchange numbers.

We have done the following things to increase the cash flow - adding a laundry room, charging storage rent, installing energy-efficient lights and so on to cut the utility cost, renovating the unit in exchange of higher rent for the current resident.What else could I do to increase the NOI?

The group overall seemed pretty good, I approached them all individually and exchanged some nice words about my plans in the business.

Is it to late to do a 1031 exchange on this property?

So bump the 5-7% on maintenance to a good 15% (sometimes more), and try to exchange things that rust easily with something that can last more in "near the coast" weather. 

Or you could 1031 exchange your portfolio into a mix of SFH, multi-family or something else cash flowing better.

So I agreed as to how terrible the banks were etc. and I made an agreement with him that if I could buy it we would adjust the lot line so to speak so that the house was on the correct property in exchange for a small Bungalo house that was out front  which was also part of the large property.
