Hello BP community, looking on reading your opinion about the following:Situation: Currently my wife and I finished a deep rehab on our latest duplex in Ft.

@Heather Gates, I appreciate @Bill Brandt's shout out.  1031 exchanges are like going two miles deep in a two foot wide creek! 

Since the bank is always concerned with risk management for getting their money back, it helps to have things such as:- Permanent residency- Japanese spouse- Larger than usual down payment- Financially secure loan guarantor who is Japanese and willing to sign for you (you will probably need the guarantor regardless, but having one with deep pockets helps)Sorry, I don't have experience with commercial property here.

Based on the limited info - back of the napkin says not to go any further on the duplex you're looking at unless you have deep pockets to carry it while you wait for the capital gain.
