That would be another option for you to get more doors.I actually know if a good property in Liberty Hill that I have had my eye on. 

A company that is actually honest and will tell you what needs to be fixed vs selling you on an expensive part or  whole new system.

The brother actually thinks he has rights to ownership (even though he is not on title) and he owns the property with his sister and has been paying the bills and living there for 9 years.

It's not difficult actually.

@Dave Foster awesome, I was actually unaware of the primary residence exemption so that could work out even better than 1031 I think.

Your friend would think you are really looking out for them if you could actually do this - and you can. 

Commercial real estate lenders calculate interest on loans in three ways:✔️ 30/360✔️ Actual/365 (aka 365/365)✔️ Actual/360 (aka 365/360)Real estate underwriters should be aware of these 3 methods and understand which calculation the lender is using.The differences can have a significant impact on the amount of interest paid over the life of the loan.Similarly, it can also have an impact on the amount of cash flow that is available to be distributed to your investors.

This may sound cliche, but the best CRM is the one you actually use consistently.

Agents that sell owner-occupied houses RARELY know how to handle rental properties.Your agent probably took the pics themself, versus hiring a professional photographer like they would do for an actual sales listing.

That's why it's important who you actually set yourself up with to bring  value to your projects.
