I know I have been on the butt end of those transactions.

Often, brokers of large multifamily properties put out lists of their recent transactions.

So working with your buyer to negotiate as much value as possible to the real estate and least possible to the business will help to lower your taxes further.

I need to experiment with the RH option... it takes a few clicks to get to the option, but supposedly it will try to reconcile the bank pulled transactions and receipts for me, so if it does do that, would be nice.

Hey Paul, any other tips on what you did to lower your cost per contact?

.- get into real estate with a lower rate and lesser percentage down payment.

Hi @Ben Lindquist, The 1031 Exchange Qualified Intermediary is a crucial part of any successful 1031 Exchange transaction.

Typically interest only, construction bridge loans are great for that kind of transaction. 

I’ve had several investor clients go with a new (to me)/ unproven lender because of a slightly lower rate promise only to get burned by that lender (closing costs were higher, appraisal costs much higher and appraisal was a nightmare, main point of contact gave us the clear to close as we passed our financing contingency then just before closing someone from the underwriting department we previously didn’t know existed said we need a few more days and seller didn’t agree because they had a higher backup offer, jeopardizing the earnest money and losing the property, etc).

Are costs really lower with a container?
