Of course ordered cabinets are going to be much more, like $15k.I'd stay away from IKEA and any RTA type cabinets......based on my experience....

(I like my original points better, of course, but this is a great discussion.) 

The mentors are all very nice and try to be helpful, but if you have to put the course on a credit card then save the money and invest it

If I understand your situation correctly, you could structure a Tenancy In Common (TIC) deal where each of the separate LLCs owns an undivided interest in the replacement property, as tenants in common.These deals need to be structured properly and you need to have an attorney familiar with 1031 exchanges involved to make sure it's done properly.Also, if there is a lender involved, that can complicate the matter as well.It's definitely doable, if you have the right professional help while you're doing it.Feel free to write if you have any questions about this.

You could consider offering to have the shower inspected by a licensed professional to provide a written report confirming its safety and functionality to address your tenant's concerns.If your tenant continues to refuse to pay rent, you may have grounds to evict them for non-payment of rent.

Hi Bigger Pockets Community,
New member here...Im looking for some advice on whether I should be classified as a REPS or not for 2023 Tax year as my CPA isnt much help on determining if I should make this designation...

When you use a Realtor (especially one who invests themselves, don't fall for I'm an investor 'friendly' agent..of course they are, most will take a sale wherever it comes from and by shear numbers, they are bound to sell to an investor eventually.

I am real estate investor with a focus on building a portfolio of SFH and Multi-family apartments primarily along the East course  .

Of course, slap and list plays, where it's a few cosmetics updates and re-listing properties mostly as-is was the strategy for some, and in those cases they are priced out of the market now for reasons he stated.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
