Nature of rentals I feel. 

My father and I own a housing foreclosure business and a property inspection business, but the foreclosure business is bleak right now due to the nature of the market, so minimal leads. 

But remember this person just went through a natural disaster is in a very vulnerable state, please be ethical.

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.
