I need to run more analysis on which one would actually be more likely to cashflow. (3) Rent the 1031'd property for 2-3 years. (4) Relocate to the 1031 property and swap it to a primary residence. (5A) If we are happy with the 1031'd property as a primary, turn our (now) former primary residence into a rental, then continue with 1031'ing from there.

He can put his own fridge in, put yours in storage, and swap them back out when he moves out. 

And running new lines is relatively affordable in the event you need to swap anything out.Your steel on copper concern on the other hand does need to be addressed.

Some more creative title agents have a trick they can use, sometimes called a "swap and drop".

College students swap out pretty much every year and that rehab cost to unit can add up if they aren't maintaining it well.
