Do a 1031 exchange of your cheapest 2-3 properties for one more expensive property to open up a couple slots.

Painted exterior and interior, new flooring, new kitchen countertops, stainless steel appliances, new bathtub and surround, new light fixtures, and repairs as needed.What was the outcome?

After repairs here you're often left with a basement wall held up with steel beams that most buyers shy away from.

we did some cosmetic updates in the kitchen, new stainless steel appliances, fresh paint and flooring throughout.
