This can be challenging because if the numbers work putting 3.5% down, certainly investors who can likely offer better terms will buy it since they will be putting 20%-30% down.

@John D.Without self-employment activity, a self-directed IRA will be a better match for you.

If you are going to be upset about the occasional loud radio, baby crying, gathering like baby shower or birthday, then contact the person she asked you to deal with and figure out a solution or, even better, learn to deal with the fact that you live in close quarters and other people will be annoyingly loud sometimes when you don’t want them to.

I reached out to the college near our house to post on campus, but is there a better way besides that method or Facebook?

You'd be better off taking that $20k and buying a property and learning as you go. 

If you feel you can do better, then it may be time to sell or 1031.It depends on what you plan to do with the money.

Additionally, I'll continue to build equity in the other home with a renter.Now, I may be able to make $10,000 if I sold the home but it just seems as if building the equity would be a better option. 

Hopefully, you can better time the market and sell high and buy low when you find a deal. 

Overall I think you're on the right track as you're better off not filing claims unless they're very significant.

And is it better for a wholesaler to buy/sell a home under a tax foreclosure or a mortgage foreclosure?
