Amazing Services I offer ( to my clients only )

You can defer the tax on your gains, when you sell your property,
if you comply with IRS tax code 1031, if you buy another investment property.
There are several reasons to use this tax benefit...
- The property may be paid for and the owner may want to use the equity value
to buy a more expensive property.
- The owner may live a far distance from the property and may believe
that owning a property nearby would make management
more efficient and more profitable.
- Many owners believe that their time is valuable
and owning a newer property built more recently would have fewer problems.
(Like selling an old car to buy a new car.)
- Cities change and locations sometimes become less attractive
while other neighborhoods become more attractive.

When choosing a structural and mechanical real estate inspector,
Ask if the inspector has significant experience inspecting multi-family apartment properties.
Also ask if the report will include estimated cost of repairs.
In my experience only about one in ten inspection reports include cost of repairs.
Does the inspector have the background to accurately do so?
