Andrew and his company are incredibly UNPROFESSIONAL and I would recommend STAYING AWAY from him and his company. 

I currently work for a luxury building materials company and my commute is about an hour and a half each way every day.

For my first House Hack, I added value as I lived there so was able to get the property a little bit cheaper and start to get higher rents upon moving out.

I pay a management company 35% to do it all.

@Todd Powell Normally 1031 exchange happens for the same company.

I'm like @Craig De Borba, don't know about Phill Grove or his company, but a few years ago I went to a "seminar" from Than Merrill and it was the same thing...

How do go about making contacts at insurance companies or corporate relocation agencies?  

2) Is there any company which can work with me to doing the BRRRR for me?

It's a beautiful property with a pool, picnic benches, and grill stations,  on 1/2 acre in a great part of town.The appraisal shows that with the value I've added, there is significant equity growth.The issue is that I am having a difficult time finding a lender who will help me REFI out of my hard money loan.

There is an added benefit when they are in your market.
