1031 exchange questions

[Ishmael Johnson]

With the 1031 exchange

Do you run numbers as usual on “like kind” properties and then present them to a lender?

How would that work being that I wouldn’t need the purchase and renovation cost to be covered completely by the lender?

What is the most advantageous way to do this as an investor, use the proceeds from the exchange to cover the purchase price?

Is it possible to use one realtor to list and another to locate the like kind properties ?
