They were a from this to that asset. 

If anyone currently doing this in my area is willing to share their experience or help point me in the right direction of a stellar real estate agent to help me find my first deal it would be much appreciated!!

I figure for the first year, this property would gross at least $50k-60k annually.

if your immediate market is too expensive, go a couple hours away.hope this helps

I've been a spectator in this community on and off for a while now.

This downturn was really pronounced this year with most agents transaction volume down by 40% or more.

We still have a long-term rental there, and we were able to run a very successful short term rental until we sold it this year.

Why do this?

I have found another property of interest and I am considering selling the replacement property from this previous 1031 and using it to 1031 into this new property.

All of our trainings are open to anyone who wants to come, because we are confident that anyone who attends will ask "Why isn't my brokerage doing this?"
