So I said its probably best to just pay the tax.If an investor overpay a ton, just to save on taxes, most likely they'll be inflicting significant financial damage to their portfolio… it’s probably best to opt out and pay the tax.1031s aren't structured in a way that makes someone "overpay" - it mainly comes down to poor planning which puts them in that situationNever let the tax tail wag the dog!

Not even money orders because they can be reversed just like a VISA/ Mastercard payment. 

If you have more time than money, this is the free way to do it.If you value your time, then use one of the paid sites, like flsonline, foreclosures daily, or a host of other data providers. 

Title company is asking for an Uninsured Title affadavit to refi out of a hard money loan.  

The lure of easy money and scaling too quickly is the most likely path to being a forced seller.

In either scenario you want to make sure you account for the "cost" of the money in your deal analysis so you account for your HELOC or mortgage payments.  

If the house is located in prime area, perhaps STR would makes sense with some tax loopholes that you can achieve and save.

Have clear goals like what cap rate you want, how much money you hope to make, and where in Denver you prefer to buy.

Its the same process as if you were using a bank but the money is coming from another entity or person and not a bank.

Even if you lose money on the issue/deal, hopefully the investor makes note and uses you again.
