I am looking to see if any companies are doing rehab and flips on a large scale.  I searched, and it doesn't appear anybody is doing this.  If you know of any please let me know.

I'd like to take a swing at being a landlord and would love to chat with someone who has already gone through the process.  

Looking to network with anyone that is interested in trading ideas and information in Real Estate.

In general, you can deduct rents paid for property used in your trade or business and the 1099 will help substantiate the amount. 

15 years experience, having worked for a publicly traded REIT and Opportunity Fund.

You might find an investor who needs help marketing, or a general contractor who needs help swinging a hammer.

I work in Financial Technology, managing the systems used to price, trade, and value financial products.  

I'm sure you'll get some input from some here who know more than I about these, but it's my understanding that you can't "trade down" with a 1031 exchange; the replacement property has to be at least equal in value to the relinquished property.

I haven't read it, but from all the content on BP and the podcasts, I expect it details some pretty solid strategies.If you credit is terrible but you have cash, you might need to spend some time networking and looking for a local investor who is willing to trade insight for hard work.

We can trade and compare information.
