I have time and the ability to fix up properties so not looking to buy something that is turnkey.

Rehab wasn't too strenuous and i did myself with the help of my family - Re landscape garden, painted inside, re grouted bathroom tiling etc to freshen up.

This blows up my 2024 and 2025 tax strategy ...

Even says she has stayed the night there a couple times while getting set up locally.

If there any online seminars, meet-ups or any words of wisdom that would be great.

I no longer work from a place of scarcity.I set myself up for success and work from a place of abundance.I have built my cash buyer list to close to 5,000 buyers, invested into a coaching program for private lending, and developed multiple exit strategies to be ready for any situation that presents itself.It let's me earn $40k per deal consistently today and occasionally hit some $90k+ homeruns.Embrace your mistakes, learn from them, and adapt.This is the only way to grow.

Hey @Nicholas J Mineo, this issue has cropped up in other municipalities.

Trading up in rental properties after a few years can be smart because it allows you to leverage the benefits of a 1031 exchange, which defers capital gains taxes, letting you reinvest all your equity into a more valuable property.

I'll be there tonight if you need someone to meet up with.
