Might be a good place to get connected.As far as financing goes, I would encourage you to reach out to Kathy Della-Penna at InFirst Bank.

I'm glad to hear that your first one went well that you're looking to buy another one.That is very encouraging.

I always encourage my clients to analyze that.

The additional real estate activities allowed in Phase 1.5 and Phase 2:-Real estate firms may open their offices in a limited fashion (with additional restrictions for Phase 1.5)-Three persons (as opposed to two persons) are allowed on site for permitted in-person real estate activities for both residential and commercial brokerage (for both improved and unimproved property)As a reminder, all in-person activities must be by appointment only and real estate brokers and industry partners must wear cloth face coverings and should encourage clients and customers to do the same."

Might encourage more to post deals even if they are not premium.

I would encourage you to ask yourself WHY you are thinking about getting your license.

@Taylor L. thank you for your response, that's definitely encouraging!

One last note properties are constantly being mapped in and out of the flood maps and many times if homeowners have been recently mapped in to a high-risk flood zone if they purchase the policy within a year of the map change they can lock in the X zone rates which are $500 primary home and $750 second home in this instance I would strongly recommend to all realtor to encourage their clients and communities to by the flood insurance because that savings can be passed on to a new owner if the property was to be sold in the near future.

@Phaedra CuljakYou are in a great situation with that amount of equity in your property.I 100% agree with the recommendations of the 1031 Exchange.There are great benefits involved, and with lower interest rates in the present market, now is a great time to invest and, more importantly, diversify your portfolio.I would encourage you to reach out to a team that regularly handles these situations to get their professional advice on what does or does not qualify for a 1031 exchange.

I would encourage you to call some local banks and let them know your situation.
