It depend on your market. If tenants are hard to come by, take it. If not, stick to 12 month leases.

1031 requirements are very specific and a misstep can't be remedied after the fact. Recommend you consult with your real estate attorney now to make certain that you check off all of the requirements. Good luck.

If you are forming a legal entity, don't do it without consulting an attorney. Too risky otherwise.
Long shot. Good luck.

We almost always put up $5000 in earnest money, so that the seller knows that we are serious.
