However she is o lay wanting assistance in getting more reservations for bookings.This is a bit non traditional for me as I operate a full service management company.

Anyone come across this before or have any advice for me?

For me it usually turns out to be another state.

My long term goal is to 1031 exchange a portfolio of residential investment properties (ideally all multiplexes, but probably some 1-2%/mo sfrs) into a larger commercial property, ideally 15+ units, with a much more hands off operation. with that in mind, would it be better for me to save up for a larger down payment and never live in my properties, only manage from within 50-75miles (my Dallas proper neighborhood is NOT in my current budget right now) or would it be okay to #HOUSEHACK my first one and then househack a second one in 18-24months, etc. anyone go down this path before that can offer some advice?

Here is the summary of my situation that requires creative thought:Location: DC Suburbs (Clifton, VA)Original sale price: $300KOriginal mortgage: $240K ($60K down)Money spent rehabbing property since 2008: $70KTotal cash invested: $130KCurrent sale price (based on comps): $430KAmount owed on mortgage: $208KPotential cash generated from sale: $($222K, not including transfer costs)Estimated Monthly Rent: $2,200Current Monthly Payment for M/T/I: $1,300 *Biggest yard and likely one of the most updated homes in a desirable community where "average days to sell" is less than 14.Now the issues:Need $100K-$150K out of the house (or via investment) in order to put down-payment on next home, which will be primary residence (probably a $600K home).I've plugged numbers into every rent-or-sell calculator out there, but always feel like I'm missing something big.

However I heard you can form other sources, so maybe this varies from state to state, or I've been told wrong.

Working out really well for me and the tenants.

Is it possible for me to:1.

If you take an application fee and you had a prior applicant pending and they qualified,, and they paid the deposit and signed everything,, then if you had a back up application waiting you'd return the funds to the applicant and not run the form.

Would you please send me a copy of one such form so I can use it as a template for format and verbiage?
