Hi - we're getting  ready to "push the button" with Kay Properties on a 1031 finance purchase of a $100,000 offering.

I initially offered $200K in cash, but the seller countered at $240K.

I offered her before this event to move out and honor deposit back even contract building is 6months lease also wafted some negotiation with HoA they offered to move her to alternative unit.

But this is definitely a CPA question because the IRS rules are based on your AGI and phase out if your AGI is over $100k.

I would also ask them about cash for keys since I would initially offer the tenant this. 

You could do events and offer onsite chef availability for large parties. 

The draw is actually this coming Fri for 2026The market for STR seems saturated in popular/touristic regions, however, if you have a unique property and offer affordable pricing, you may get descent occupancy. 

For example, the insurance company offers you $100k.

Here's a good breakdown of your options for tax collecting starting Feb 1 based on the new regulations.

When making offers I want to utilize the standard 70%-ARV-Profit formula.
