I have always had a passion for real estate.I have had my real estate license for 10 years now however I am not actively working as a real estate agent at the moment.I have worn many hats over the years, to support myself, but always come back to real estate.

I work as a legal secretary and want to support my "art habit" (as well as my retirement) by holding onto rental properties, and probably living in one of them in a few years.  

(Even if it were to ever happen, you couldn't just "do away" with them in Michigan since it's based on a provision in the federal tax code.)From everything I've heard, NAR actually supports 1031 exchanges (more business for them). 

Do you think I have reached out enough advertising?  

Is there a way around selling or ways to get support?

You would have to owner occupy the new property per FHA requirements.If you want to buy a new investment property using conventional loan, then you can do it at any time, as long as your income supports it.

Don't forget to consider things like HOA fees, state income taxes, child support, Medicaid, code violation citations, municipal liens ...

Now my kids are grown, I am in the industry, and I want to get serious about it.My goals for this group are to network with like minded individuals, develop some great relationships, offer my services as a property manager and realtor to those who would benefit from my services, and hopefully find someone who would be willing to be a mentor someone like me in a mutually beneficial relationship.I look forward to the opportunity to plug into the knowledge and support of this community! 

At the requested loan amount we’re raising the cap rate 130bps and still supporting the proposed refinance value of $1.335MM which supports the loan amount of $1MM at 75%.
