However, in the last two years, we've replaced two air conditioning systems, added a window unit to another property, and have two furnace replacements coming up.

Now, when they left we noticed that a couple of things broken for which we charged them(garbage disposal $250 and sliding door screen replacement $150).

If you don't know how to do these things, you are literally throwing money out the window into a hurricane.  

After the initial expense I'm still looking at an older roof, windows, and various other needed updates, not to mention what I haven't found yet.

I have a photo of the missing window screen their claiming because I didn't tell them about it that it doesn't count so that's $100.

The contractor has dragged the job out so long, that any relief from carrying the payment on this one is appealing, but do you think I'll risk a down shift in the market by giving the potential buyer a 24 month window to buy?

New windows.

Can I sell a property in one state and then do the 1031 transfer to a bigger property in another state withing the 45 day window, or does the transfer have to stay within the same state?
