If you decide to go out of state, I’d recommend starting with turnkey properties and having a property manager handle everything.

There's nothing wrong with considering them along with other options, but I would be careful thinking they will get you more bang for your buck or a more honest operator.Remember: cheaper doesn't mean you'll make more money.Start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.

I dont have any feedback for turn key REI but lots of experience with 1031X and my suggestion for you is to make sure you have a good idea of the exchange you're going into or at least the category of homes or type you're aiming for.

I want to keep the property but also know that this ridiculous HOA isn't going away and even if they move/move on, someone else will just buy it since I can't afford to buy them out right now.

but if i go in a LLC with them i get hit with the tax from the sale of the homeThe GC and the flipper were just going to split the profits from the sale of the home and they were going to pay me 2%/12% for the duration of the build. 

I personally would go that route as it would probably be less expensive. 

Or a $1 Ribeye steak at Albertsons, then you tip the cashier.

More effort should go into enforcing existing permitting laws and cracking down on unpermitted work rather than imposing costly regulations that push property owners into avoidance tactics.If the goal is to improve fire safety in Worcester’s aging multifamily housing stock, the best approach is to encourage full renovations that bring buildings up to modern safety standards—not to place additional financial burdens on responsible owners.
