Why I 1031’d Into My Neighbor’s Unit | Part 2.

This is Part 2 of my 1031 Exchange breakdown — where I walk you through the exact numbers behind buying the neighbor’s unit.
 
Quick snapshot of the deal:
• Sold original condo for $70,000 (as-is)
• Bought neighbor’s unit for $92,500
• ~$25K–$30K in built-in equity
• ~18% cash-on-cash return on money out of pocket
• ~$6,000/year projected net cash flow
Instead of spending $50K renovating or paying a large capital gains + depreciation recapture tax bill. I chose to reposition the equity into a stronger asset that cash flows immediately.

Why It’s Smart to Disclose Everything: REI Weekly Lesson

In this week’s Real Estate Weekly Lesson, I talk about why it’s smart to disclose everything you know about a property when you’re flipping, wholesaling, or renting. Too many people try to hide issues in this business, and it almost always comes back to bite them.
Full disclosure protects you, builds trust, and keeps you out of legal and financial trouble. If you want to be in this business long-term, transparency isn’t optional — it’s the smart way to operate.
If you’re in the Hudson Valley, Seattle metro, or Delaware and have a deal you want to wholesale or JV on, reach out.

How a 1031 Exchange Helped Me Buy the Neighbor’s Property

In this Real Estate Weekly Deal Breakdown, I walk through a real-life deal where I sold a problem rental and used a 1031 exchange to buy the neighbor’s unit instead.
This condo was a nightmare—bad tenant, eviction, major damage, a contractor who stole money, and numbers that no longer made sense. I break down why rehabbing it didn’t work, why selling outright would’ve crushed me with taxes, and how a conversation with the neighbor led to the best possible outcome.
If you’re holding rentals and considering selling, this breakdown will help you think through your options before you make an expensive mistake.
