They would rather have a end buyer with cash or a loan buy it. 

Furthermore  once the 1031 intermediary get their cut and you also pay two sets of closing costs ( buyers now have to pay closing costs in some states ) as opposed to just one closing cost ( if not doing the 1031) it might be a “half a dozen vs 6 of the other “ scenario .Also one of the turn offs to the 1031 exchange is the interest rate will be much higher with todays rates especially since we would have to get an investment property loan which are higher than “ primary residence “ loans ..Will probably lower the rent asap ( have one more showing ) and then put it on the market .Thanks for the great advice Christian

Worst case, it gets outlawed in a town AFTER you’ve bought a place there & now you have to sell at a HUGE loss bc there’s no buyer demand once STR use is banned!

They have $30,000 worth of arrears, and because they would be coming out of pocket if a buyer were to negotiate with them on price, price is pretty much non negotiable.

The buyer would then refinance before the 2 years is up.
