To me it seems like an incredible pairing, someone who knows and understands to tools available and has the professional ability to leverage those tools not just for tax returns BUT also for tax planning and strategy.I'm a Stessa Pro member and in talking with the pro support team they do not have any preferred CPAs/vendors at this time.Does anyone know of CPAs who know the system?

This is clearly personal preference, and a bit about contingent on your point of view on where market is going.  

For time horizons of 5 years or less, I usually prefer something safe like a HYSA or money-market fund.

@Brienne Metcalf, I prefer to have leases.

Their product was deemed an essential service and the preferred return would be cumulative.

Whether you plan to rent your current home or buy a new property, the choice depends on your risk tolerance, cash flow goals, and lifestyle preferences.

Much prefer the American album cover though...

I’ve had other clients who preferred this approach..one even found a gem in Glenview at a time when the suburb wasn’t as well-known, and today his property’s value has grown by 15% in the past three years alone.With the anticipated drop in mortgage rates in 2024, the suburbs might be a solid pick for someone new to the market, especially if you’re looking to build equity without dealing with the volatility of city investments.So, for a first-timer, think about your goals: high appreciation and some hands-on work?

@Nick Cortolillo Keep in mind that most DSTs are about 50-55% LTV or less.The answer to your question is somewhat subjective depending on personal preferences...The most important thing to keep in mind is that you'll need to match your debt and equity in order to execute a tax-free exchange. 

. - Are you okay pushing more and having to re-lease the unit, or would you strongly prefer not to have to do that and give up more on cash flow- What do you personally feel comfortable increasing the rent for?
