Would love to use the entire Proceeds to purchase something in NC or any other Landlord Friendly state.Are there any other 1031 variations out there that I can qualify for??

So if you're purchasing a $300,000 house, gross monthly rents should be $3,000 to make it a worthwhile investment.You will see a lot of variation in this "rule-of-thumb" across Bigger Pockets mainly because it's not a very good rule, and it means entirely different things depending on which market you're in, but people still try to apply the rule across the board to all markets.

I've downloaded 1/2 dozen guarantor forms and the variation is dizzying, from straightforward to legaleze and notary required.

**First poster alert** I have heard variations of 'if you can get ahead of the path of progress, you'll make money', but how far ahead of the path of progress should you shoot for?

Assuming there is a slight variation and in the legal meaning of those three words, are you really any better off than saying "the buyer agrees to..."? 

I will be doing my own variation of house hacking, as my place is a 3 bedroom, and I have two other roommates lined up who will each pay me $900/month plus utilities.

There is enough variation in my market that I feel I am much better than an algorithm.

There can be some variations with how counties handle the paper work process so obviously follow the direction of your local court. 

There seems to be a bit of variation.
