A 1031 exchange is a great way to indefinitely defer the tax and use it to grow your RE portfolio, and build long term wealth.The most important factor in a 1031 exchange is that your qualified intermediary must be in place prior to the closing of the sale of your old property.

If you have a scenario that the area is being developed or other factors that indicate value should go up significantly in the future, it might also make sense to hold and refi your capital out. 

This factors in both monthly rates and vacancy.- What are your expenses?

I didn’t know about the chip plant, I will look in to that.are those places close enough to Dallas to be affected by the city and its real estate or is it mainly because of the job growth in the area? 

Location plays a big factor into this question. 

With $170k to deploy you most likely will have that all in one, maybe two deals, if it doesn’t go well you could end up way worse off.That said, if there are other factors like the property is a huge pain to manage or you are worried the neighborhood may actually get worse or you know you need a new roof in a couple years, then I’d consider selling.Also, even though you said it’s not a high appreciating area, do you think 1-2% is fair?
