Most families move between school years so the larger more expensive homes tend to sell in the late spring and early summer months.

I would tend to know the tax consequences by not doing a 1031.  

I would tend to be a little frugal and try to be prepared for the worst.

Those jobs tend to have pay tied to inflation targets and while there is a ton of promising tech growth, development builds have been focused on eating up the new comers.

Mortgage bankers tend to have more programs available then the banks and credit unions.

They tend to refer you to local REIA clubs for face to face help. 

I would tend to agree with you on this.

One saved me over $9k through the findings, but only costed $350 on a SFH.With favorable seller financing, I tend to go much easier on the seller.  

One way I could do that is by only targeting (for example) NYC, Bay Area, Denver, Sacramento, etc, properties with lots of equity that will still be cashflow positive at 7.5% according to some AVM that I'd run on my portfolio of twenty thousand notes where the owner is in violation (they can see it the instant you put it in an LLC, even if currently they don't do anything), those properties thus flagged of course tending to be prime real estate and cashflow cows, and I'd let the "meh" properties remain in their LLC without doing anything.

Money aside, these types of SFH's can just be tough to deal with as the low price tends to attract tons of inquiries from a bunch of prospects that are in no way qualified to pass even the most basic tenant screening process.
