So, the seller could simply hand the buyer an envelope with a cashier's check at closing. 

That satisfies the requirement that the seller and buyer be the same for your 1031s.Once you own the property as tenants in common you can either form an LLC and contribute the property into the LLC in exchange for membership interests respective to the amount you are contributing. 

I’ve heard from others it is still a ough thing to get lending on.The suggested way that bankers have given me is to have the end buyer apply for the loan and we build the house for them.

Mainly, prospecting - aka speaking with potential buyers and sellers.I would also recommend calling everyone you know (Neighbors, family, friends, co-workers, etc.) to let them know you're in RE... don't say its a side-hustle... don't say you're 'trying it out'... don't say its only a P-T thing...

Some of these folks think buyers are now lining up, and we'll see some buyers do just that.

I recommend you confirm that with someone else other than your agent.Food for thought…Insurance related: I’m currently replacing a roof on a house I own, not because the roof is “bad” but because it isn’t possible for the next buyer to get insurance with such an old roof (barrel tile, which lasts longer than the 30 years that insurance companies require).  

It's just that those first few years, newer buyers dont have this down.  

Percent of UPB is fairly irrelevant as the buyer will be purchasing the note for cash flow and the rate of return would be his/her major concern

That scenario definitely has more risk, mostly because the buyer has nothing to fall back on.
