I know this, but the seller is a hard head and I don't want to rely on a difficult seller to make my 1031 transaction a success.So my question is, are there any 'force majeure' clauses that kick in to extend the 45 day selection period given there was a natural disaster in the area?  

My first thought would be just simply converting everything that uses Oil to Natural gas, even if I am still paying for those utility bills.

Like natural causes, angry spouse, murderous house (like that other one), etc...or just that someone died?

However may be much easier trying model of that nature.

Although by nature I'm introverted (although you couldn't tell in my professional career), I'm taking a leap forward of opening up and seeing how far this could take me. 

Natural gas prices are really low nowadays and that really affects the price of electricity.

But yeah paper seemed easier for me considering the lower amount needed to invest (I worked on 2nd position NPNs) and their relative "hands off" nature.

The 25% "vacancy" is used to offset maintenance, fees, and vacancy.However, you cannot use the rental income from the vacating property unless it's 100 miles away minimum, or other exceptions (enlarging family size, employer-forced move, etc.) so your income would have to cover your vacating property plus the new property (minus 75% of the rented units.)

I’m pretty familiar with the area as I used to drive for a living for a long-time in the medical field and I’m just a naturally curious person.We’re also looking for Hard Money lenders if there are any fellow Arizonans out there that can point us in the right direction about said lenders we would really appreciate it!

How I do it is through selective screening and I have been 100% successful.By instituting certain screening standards it will naturally eliminate the vast majority of non target applicants.For example young couples with children will generally have lower credit scores.
