Maybe even the 1031 Exchange forum if you want to try another place. 

Could one of your tenants help in exchange for reduced rent?   

The power of compounding in real estate is real - yet most professionals don't understand how powerful it really can be even though they talk about generating wealth.The true power of a 1031 exchange is the ability for an investor to meet their investment objectives without losing equity to taxation.

But you can talk to an accountant about setting your business up under a corporation, and doing 1031 Exchanges.

Then 1031 exchange.  

This was precisely what I was looking for.

Have you met them or is this an email exchange. 

I had a similar experience with birds nesting inside my fresh air exchange vent to an HVAC system.   

Will it be very complicated to do a 1031 Exchange for my portion (provided that we relinquish the property and the sibling just receives the cash for her portion)?  

Through the exchange I purchased a multi-tenant office bldg.. in Knoxville, TN.
