I had all my money tied up for a while due to investing in the hight of the market and have now sold the place I was investing in with my partners and did a 1031 exchange into a small 15 unit apartment complex it is makes about 2k per month +/-.  

New email lauren@ listedwithlauren.com I have someone doing 1031 exchange

We should exchange notes as we each move forward!

My question is should I just got for it, find a great deal and sell the lead to an experienced wholesaler, or take no profit and volunteer my time to ride along and watch in exchange for the deal information?
