You need to ask your local county tax office if a transfer fee/recording fee applies in your circumstances and, if so, how much you will have to pay.If your question is really asking whether there is an income tax consequence of transferring real property title between an individual and a corporate entify, or from a corporate entity to an individual, the answer is maybe.   

And nope a 1031 is not right in all circumstances. 

I'm confident it'd go for $1,650 under most circumstances, but I was not sure how much the school year starting would potentially delay renting it out.Even at $1,600, it'd still be above our initial projections and I'm anxious to get started on the next one once this ones finished up.

I could get about $300 a month positive cash flow, and I own the property free and clear in 17 years.So I guess the real question is, besides rare circumstances like this - what would be a reasonable reward, payment, etc. to make it beneficial for me to dig someone out of a hole and make it worth their while to trust me for the next 15 years.

The right realtor will be a resource for you, but under no circumstances should you be dependent on them.

I figured out what people wanted given their various stages of life and circumstances.

While under certain circumstances it might be possible to create a partnership between qualified plan and disqualified person there is always likelihood that  such arrangement may lead to a prohibited transaction.

There may be unique circumstances (people have lease, etc) otherwise, if they don't move / will not move, then you go to JP Court and file for eviction.

If you want a specific CoC return @Justin Fox gave you an easy way to set a CF goal.If it were me, I'd figure out my goal and throw the relevant data (rate, appraised value, LTV, Op Data ect) into excel and have a data table show me what my CF looked like under different circumstances (ie. varying combinations of LTV and desired return) Then, assuming I had its modeled out, I'd do the same for IRR. 

Either the seller is being unreasonable or there are extenuating circumstances.
