I personally would want to create something similar, but I haven't gotten around to it yet to figure out the mechanics.

@Kevin Hubbard - Dave Foster did a nice job of outlining the mechanics of transactions.

**Do Your Research** - **Understand Seller Financing**: Familiarize yourself with the mechanics of seller financing, including how it works, the benefits for sellers, and the risks.

They aren’t explaining the mechanics of how this strategy would actually work in the event a lawsuit is filed and potential implications on your insurance.

Definitely talk to a 1031 specialist like @Dave Foster to get the mechanics of the 1031 process.Sounds like you want to keep your one rental and get rid of the mountain houses.

You need to have a mechanism to remove tenants who are a problem, and I would strongly encourage you to consult an attorney the moment you close to get your lease terms right.

I don't think it will be any "harder" or "easier" changing title/loan into the LLC from a mechanical standpoint, but the lender might be more willing/able if the same people were in the LLC as the original loan.

Will be experimenting with glue in ends before tapping back this time (no matter which mechanical means I find).

I'm sure it would've included structural engineering, but it might have included electrical and mechanical engineering as well...or even other consultants.

Get your own boots on the ground, meet the people you will rely on aka the cleaners two handmen, meps(mechanical, electrical, plumbing) contractors.
