He's looking to move in the spring (unless he's motivated otherwise) and I'm sure he'd be interested in a less complicated exchange, with less effort and outlay of cash for him to "prep for sale".Help and suggestions would be appreciated. 

So working with a team helped me understand my criteria better, narrow down on the neighborhoods and coordinate everything from start to close. 

We estimated the value of the home based on similar sales so that estimate minus what we paid is where this amount comes from. - When did you purchase the home?

I just bought a house at a sheriff's sale, but the owner has a history of foreclosures and coming up with the money during the redemption period.

B is likely referring to who between H/W would be entitled to most or all of the sales proceeds.

I don't like sales pressure. 

It’s appreciated in value considerably while I’ve owned it.I know there is the 250k exemption on profits from the sale of your primary residence but that has to have been your primary residence 2 of the last 5 years.

The idea that you can build wealth without putting any money into it is a recipe for disaster and the sales pitch of gurus trying to steal your money.

During that time I’d also have the line of credit to pull on for repairs/vacancy/maintenance, and I’d have that line already established for my next investment.The second option is to put traditional mortgages on them in 6 months once the sale seasons.

Purchase price: $629,000 Cash invested: $415,000 Sale price: $1,350,000 Bought a 2 family home and gut renovated it into two condos.
