My insurance company doesn’t open until 9:00, but I’m the meantime I’m scrambling to try and get this repaired/replaced. 

The houses and auction dates tend to shift around, so it is like a box of chocolates (yep, that’s a Forrest Gump reference)- there is a scramble on auction day to see what properties are actually on the docket.

I have personally seen people get so caught up in a 1031 that they sell an asset, scramble to find a replacement, and then overpay on a purchase to avoid paying taxes.... 

That can mean either great CF or leave me in a place where I'm scrambling to offload a property at the bottom of a buyers market.I just wanted to pick the brains of the more seasoned veterans who have been through multiple ups and downs in the market over the years. 1.

Because unless you can (and I don't mean promising to pay the seller interest on $50k instead, while you're scrambling around in panic), then it's likely dead in the water for you.But if $50k of your own cash isn't a problem, then there's been plenty of good advice given.Welcome to BP.

Scrambling to find the target property after selling yours can force you to take bad deals.

Don't think any of them are leaking which is why I'm not scrambling to get the job done.For the vinyl windows, are you saying the replacement windows will not come with the flange? 

I’m sure I’m forgetting about a few other small fix/upgrades. 5 years after owning the home we decided we needed a bigger house and sold it in ONE DAY (technically not even 24 hours) leaving us scrambling to find a new home, which was very stressful and not fun since we hadn’t even stated looking yet.

Everything that's been going on with these tenants ability to pay should have been taking place months ago, when they went to a veterans org to get rent help, not scrambling now that the rent help is over.
