Summary

Bob started buying rentals three years ago. After building his portfolio to 33 doors, he realized that his properties had appreciated a ton, and he wanted to cash out and capture his equity.

Six months later, he realized he made a mistake by selling and started repurchasing rentals.

On this episode, we talk about how Bob sold his portfolio, why he decided to start investing in a different area, and what he's buying today. We also see how things worked out for him tax-wise by selling his portfolio.
