I once had a client who sold a property in California and used a 1031 exchange to purchase in Arizona, thinking they were in the clear.

When Im getting into mid October to mid November....I typically recommend to my clients to pull the property off the market, and relist around Feb 15th for townhomes and single families, nd possibly as early as Jan 15th for condos.

It's not unusual for my clients to bring in $5000+/month in top line revenue. 

Hi Chad, @Denver McClure and I are working with a client on a 1035 scenario right now and it is an easy process.

This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Many Loan Officers like to BS to get a client in the door.

For my clients, in every city I am set-up in I have an agent who pulls all the comps and writes up an opinion on the value based on size, area, finishes, market. 

It spreads their risk.In regard to market, there's a couple of different approaches my clients take:1.)

New to real estate but possess a deep understanding of the responsibilities to continue to gain knowledge and remain loyal with my clients and professionally with my colleagues.  

A lot of my clients buying in FL are happy with minimal return but are buying for second homes, tax benefits, etc.I would stick with value add - with refi you can still achieve high CoC and a good equity position.
