I have done several multiple property 1031 exchanges throughout the state for my clients who are looking to scale and improve their investment portfolio. 

While it might feel like an extra charge to tenants, these packages often provide value that indirectly benefits the property owner as well—like reduced maintenance calls or ensuring the property is better protected.In my experience managing a large portfolio of properties, these fees are becoming more common due to the thin margins in property management.

I do a meetup in Mesa on Saturday morning's which is a good place to come meet even more RE professionals and investors.You have the experience so now you just need the right strategy to grow the portfolio.

The modest cash flow could be reinvested, eventually allowing me to build a portfolio of income-generating properties.I recognize your point about needing $2.5M–$3M in cash to consistently replace a six-figure income.

I currently work with investors building and diversifying their portfolios with Single-family homes over the midsouth/midwest, and I would love to connect with you and share some insight on the turn-key world and swap investing goals.

If this job popped up out of the blue, your intent was not to move within the 1st year, so you may be ok.If you are planning on building a portfolio of homes, it is safest to stick in your home for 12 months to reduce the appearance of potential fraud. 

We bought a portfolio of 27 properties.

The interface is user-friendly, and the reporting tools are especially helpful for tracking property performance.One downside is that it can be a bit pricey for smaller portfolios, but the features have been worth it for me.

Most newer wholesalers I meet are looking to do this just to build their own portfolio, hold on to the properties they want and capitalize on the ones they do not.

What is the upside of retaining this type of asset long term in isolation (likely won't be building a portfolio or 1031-ing anytime soon, but maybe in a decade)?
