the 1031 option the cash will be stuck in there but i only pay one closing cost set, the first option i play closing costs twice..... any thoughts?

I'm playing the long game with my rentals so I'm not selling or do I plan to refi pulling money out.

Wording plays all the role here.

That's when market dynamics come into play and we must charge what we can, not what we would like to.I own where most tenants can't afford all that.

We wanted to have financial freedom as well as be able to choose how our lives were going to play out.

I live in delta and montrose delta and grand junction seem to have less players in the game.

Knowing the market, inside track on big players, gaining access to the realtor community for networking and knowledge.

Biggest lesson- I guess I played it safe and was in a hurry to land my first deal, so I bought a property only 4% under appraised value and because of this, I have all my capital sitting in the deal until it makes sense to refi out. 

I just know that I for sure want to have a couple of warm locations in our portfolio (Scottsdale and Fort Meyers areas in particular) where we can escape and play a little golf when its snowy at home!

As an investor and residential realtor, I've both done them and help people buy them.Unlike Kansas City or Memphis where you can buy a house for a pack of playing cards and some gum, Salt Lake's market is now a value-market.
