or the ones were 12 kids partying on a deck that collapsed and lives were lost it happens.. but its just very rare.. so in this instance where you simply turning down an applicant I just don't see the risk

I know you have extensive experience with seller financing.any help is appreciated, thanks everyone !

A realtor for the sale of your asset, a DST broker for the DST (preferably one with extensive real estate not just SEC compliance experience), a mineral rights broker (totally different industry than DSTs), a CPA to keep your tax picture clean, and a QI to make sure the 1031 is completed correctly.It truly does take a village. 

hi Kevin:There are no properties around boston area that are 100k or less, unless it is a real dump and it will require extensive work which I do not want to take as my first project .

Watch that mgmt cost.  9% is not going to tell you everything.For Instance, It costs me 1 month's rent to place a tenant!  

The application is very extensive, even after completing it, there are likely agents who are already in the third party system that the banks have used previously and would continue to use.

The neighborhood associations, at least Windom Park, are trying to keep it from going that route, but my guess that at some point NE will be an extension of downtown, similar to Uptown. 

Is there an additional fee if you should need an extension beyond the closing date that you originally had?

We can do basic handy man skills.Hi Jessica,Personally I think this is an attractive looking house from the outside.If I were looking to buy it, I'd have a property inspector go out and look the place over and produce a written report.Paying particular attention to the roof, brickwork, electrical (including service drop amperage in place and available) and plumbing, as well as possible basement flooding reasons (probably why the basement wallboard is missing).If he recommended having additional inspections done by, for instance, a licensed Electrician, or a Roof inspector, I would have those done too.A written report should pick up (most problems--but not all) and allow an estimate of repairs to be made.With a house of this age I'd also have a sewer cam inspection done to see how that system is.The information in the reports, would be part of my go/no go decision on the purchase.You mentioned A/C.  

Access to public transportation, extensions of expressways that access major cities into further suburbs, etc.
