I have a couple that I use fairly regularly that do a great job and are thorough.

I'm so adamant about investing from a position of financial strength that I wrote a book about it, and host a podcast every week where we talk about nothing but building a rock solid financial foundation capable of supporting financial freedom and large-scale real estate investments. 

I do not answer calls or texts from my guests ever and I’m the most popular host in my market.

But if you're looking to do significant improvements and want to use your exchange as seed money this would still keep everything tax deferred.Another option would be to do a regular 1031 exchange but use the proceeds to buy two or more value add properties. 

We have several deals we are in the process of negotiating PSAs and lining up financing so we're reexamining options and communicating with lenders on a regular basis. 

There's a certain website we use to market our owner finance deals and we know a couple agents who work with owner finance buyers on a regular basis. 

You will continue to do your normal regular pre-tax contributions.Loans from retirement plans have their place in financing, but you need to seriously consider other options before digging from your retirement capital.

I help regular people buy and sell their dream homes, but my true passion lies in helping investors from all across the country pursue financial freedom through real estate investing, in my local market.

We'll see if AirBnB will honor my policy or if it's a moot point...We understand many hosts and guests may feel uncomfortable hosting or traveling at this time.
