This is a post I made a week ago. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/62/topics/361...Judging by the lack of replies so far, I'd wager a decent amount of people are living in a fairy tale world on here and aren't truly prepared for things to go wrong, just worried about scaling - which is great because I want to scale too, but you need to do risk analysis IMO.

In exchange for the time and the lessons I could potentially learn, I would be willing to work for you during my off days (Sundays, sometimes Saturdays) and perhaps be an extra hand in some of your projects.

Take away depreciation, REITs, 1031 exchanges, etc. and you'll see a massive industry correction.

Theoretically you could 1031 exchange until the grave and your heirs would pay no taxes.  

I'm going to assume you have a specific interest in real estate, whether it's buying/selling homes, lending money to investors, or even fixing the home up for re-sale.If you're able to find someone in your niche, it won't be that hard to recommend them that you'll offer their services in exchange for experience and learning.

In exchange.....

(However, I would consider bird dogging deals to a wholesaler in exchange for some priority). 

Hi all,Can the experts lend a hand in what to watch out for when picking a company to handle the exchange ?
