My name is Wayne and I am a former Air Force pilot, who currently flies a desk for a Fortune 500 - Top 10 Company.

So, let's say the timeline fits and I could sell that house in a 1031 exchange, can I then use those proceeds to buy and renovate that property?

I'd like to pay off my equity note right away, but it's not an urgent need, as long as buyer's payments cover my monthly nut ($250 equity loan, $300 taxes, $75 HOA).This seems like a puzzle to me - all the pieces are on the table, I just can't see how to fit them all together to complete the task.

I admit I was not on top of this project like I should have but I have so many other projects in play I let this one slip off my radar.

You want yours to be one that pops up toward the top when people search your area.

You'll just need some sort of proof that it is not fit for guests.

@Jake Fugman I don't have any referrals in the space you're looking for but you can just punch in "YOUR CITY or AREA" plus "ATTORNEY" into the search window above and check out a few people's past endorsements to get a broader scope of professionals and to zero in on someone that fits your ticket.

Louis that fit this?

All depend which program fit your need and will profitable to you as an investor.

They also have a monthly meeting for the real estate investors group here in Gainesville so you may want to check them out to see if that might be a good fit.
