Another helpful technique in achieving wealth is the famous "Swap 'til you drop!" using section 1031 exchanges. Although I have not directly benefitted from it by using it to trade up, I have sold properties to those who have. In one case in a very hot apartment market in I believe 1976 I was receiving half a dozen fourplexes which were presold to separate buyers in trade toward my 36 unit apartment building. One of the fourplex sales crashed and I ended up getting another $5K for it which bought a lot of beer back then. lol.
