I work for a company that makes meters and our inventory is ridiculously low.

Or do I have to improve the property to up its value like the BRRRR method?

Hi everyone, I've traditionally stuck to long term buy and holds that have required limited repairs/ improvements and have not gone through the refi process as yet.

I'm hearing demand for houses is high but inventory is low, would have thought fewer sales would result it appraisers sitting around - just my perception.

It is also possible to structure an Improvement 1031 Exchange whereby your Qualified Intermediary (exchange company) acquires and holds or "parks" legal title to your new replacement property so that you have the rest of your 180 calendar day exchange period to use any remaining funds in your 1031 Exchange to complete improvements as part of your 1031 Exchange. 

All of these details add up to improve the bottom line. 

Having said that, there is a loan program/approval process that can improve your chances that I just learned about yesterday.

Trying to navigate BP for useful tools/calculators while I improve my own accounting. 

The biggest improvement in terms of cash flow was adding the storage units on the "free" parcels this property came with.

There's already more and more inventory hitting the market now all over the country, so I would start taking action and do it!
