Best, Ryan

Hi Ryan,I don't have an answer to your question yet, as I am learning the business myself as well.

For anything nicer, custom built or Lowe's are good choices.

They said they can close in 3-10 days, so you sell property A and the 1031 escrow account transfers the money to the DST deal of your choice very quickly.

You form relationships with experienced people by learning your niche, your market, and mastering the vocabulary related to your investments of choice.

@Ryan CheethamWelcome to Bigger Pockets.

Your parents can afford to pay the tax gain now, let them do that and watch you develop and make something of it while their still alive, tell them you want them to see what can be done, and if you need more $$$ ask them down the road to do more.Trusts are good way to avoid probate, and make other choices but they can be dragged out and if your not the one calling the shots as the trustee the one that manages the trust after they are gone then LIMBO is the game.Example at gift to beneficiary a charity was set at % amount.. what has to happen is a complete disclosure of assets, done by accountant, submitted by trust attorney to the beneficiary attorney so they can accept or ask for more detail on the accounting summary.. long and short of it.. more costs to the trust..

@Ryan: All of my properties are in the suburbs (Gwinnett, Cobb and Dekalb) and it is my first time to try intown.

This choice is hard work but can be highly recommended.
