I'm originally from Willard, Utah--but a stone's throw from you.

Does anyone know if these online  auction sites are locked in stone?

I use Goodlife reality LLC,  they also do PM too. https://glr.managebuilding.com/Resident/PublicPage...ask for Jack Stone

Ideally we lite to get either 2 or 3 BR 2 BA single level homes with mostly brick or stone (Low maintenance being to goal hear).   

Others refer to the more well known tourist destinations such as Woodstock, Kingston, Phoenicia, Stone Ridge, Livingston Manor.

In my area, buyers are looking for stone countertops and now the renters are starting to look for it as well.

We don't like to leave any stone unturned. 

The problem I see is the masses have not understood the advantage of purchasing a duplex.As far a Lennar is considered an entry level builder, I don't see that their neighborhoods in general have very good price appreciation, unless they are in a unique area where the location is exceptional.I think that prices are falling, and that you should be able to find a deal, the I-35 Corridor from  San Antonio to Austin is a very hot area.Here is an example of a property that was listed for $342,000, and the list price is down to $300,000, with a price drop of $20,000 on 7/29. 1261 Stone Rim Loop, Buda, Texas 78610, If you need any comps or info, just let me know, I'm a licensed Broker in Texas, and I have MLS access across the state.Also, I'm not sure if you know, but you can split your 1031 exchange and purchase multiple properties instead of just 1 property. 

So it's like killing two birds with one stone.

@Shawn Stone yes, but you would need to file the 2nd lien at closing, when you purchased the property.
