Hello all,while buying property for a 1031 exchange, I found 3 duplexes owned by single owner. 

You do not need to exchange a two unit for a two unit.

You don't comps only take you so far the rest is merely an estimate what would you list the property for if you need more help you might partner with a realtor in exchange for leads that don't want to sell with you.

I’m not as familiar with portfolio loans and would love everyone’s insight or knowledge.

Your insight, as usual, is on point and appreciated.

I have been consuming all the great info from biggerpockets for 18months now but this is my very first post and I am excited to get insights, suggestions and particularly legal advice for my situation.I recently got laid off from a company that I had been with for 6.5yrs (since right out of college) and then within a month, they offered me another role which is outside US so I am very excited about the change and new experience.
