Flip houses to generate capital, use capital to purchase more rental houses. rinse and repeat.

Will I have to pay the capital gains tax on the $65,000 that I sell, or will my re-buy offset that sale?  

@Amanda Smith wholesaling is nowhere near passive and can be capital intensive to start up if you don't have a ton of free time to door knock or research owners info. 

@Todd ShipkeyYeah good time to just save capital and watch the market, it is very expensive but rents are good out here.

I'm trying to break into this business and want to review rent rolls and profit and loss statements.  

I would give the 1031 a shot, but I would hold every property you buy at least two years do you can get the capital gains.

However, your original question was to pay off the house or not and we are advising you to sell, so answer to your question is NO - do not pay off but use the cash to put 20-25% down payment on more doors to offset the loss of income on the original property.

that's old news.... when the market swings back to a buyers market that may be true but in a sellers market.. not true.. and you need a new capital partner if they wont give you POF..

So, if the first 3 deals were all 70/30, then your partner came up with additional capital for the 4th deal, I could spin up a new Series, and that series could have its shares held in a different split.As for saving all the cash flow, that's one approach.
