You can convert your current property to a long term rental property to offset your current mortgage payment when purchasing a new home.

I have test run a number of these programs and this is the one I have purchased.

I’m looking to purchase a product to use on the entire flooring of the property including bathrooms and kitchen.

If it stresses you out that you're only relying on your property management for all the information on what's going on then I would try to make a trip out to Cleveland every once in a while.

Brand new homes typically don't produce enough income to justify the purchase price, particularly in today's market.

I'm willing to oblige as long as I get favorable terms.The goal of purchasing the property is for investment purposes.

If you start a 1031 exchange now, think of it as a purchase option that gives you the right to defer your taxes if you find the right property by July 15.  

I have sites you can purchase where we can 2x your money in less than a year all cash through zoning and entitlements.
