It's worth reaching out to Corporate Housing Groups (most HR Departments at large employers have this division as well as Relocation Companies that you can find via an internet search) to offer your property as a 30-day furnished rental.

Thats how they know your properties condition has “improved”.

I see this is posted in the house-hack forum so I'll make the assumption that you want to owner-occupy your next investment.To work more hands-on, you'll want to spend time searching for deals, analyzing deals, and networking/building a team.Before your property search, I'd recommend speaking with a lender to find out how much you'll qualify for.

Learning from this data, negative MoM real estate private investment occurred for FOUR QUARTERS dating from Q3 2008 , it's all negative until Q4 2009.In this 2022/2023 downturn cycle, we started the negative performance on CRE on the 4th quarter, so if cycle repeats the same, at very least we have to wait for another two quarter data to see the improvement if any.Learning from 2008 experience, the CRE is stabilizing only *after* Fed reduced the FFR, I dont think it's a coincidence that bond market started expecting Fed to decrease rate by April 2024 next year.

Otherwise search for "rent by the room" lease samples.

You can also find real estate investing groups through meetup.com, Facebook, or a Google search.

Hey Dave, since I have mortgages on these properties, would it make sense to bring cash to the exchange to cover the mortgage amount (or pay off the mortgage before doing the 1031) and improve the cash flow for the newly acquired property?

You may be able to factor in certain improvements to your personal residence so when you do move out, you can be eligible to depreciate it.

Go to Etsy and search for "rental property tracker," and you will find hundreds of nice spreadsheets to track 10-20 rentals, usually for under $10.Software has extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button, and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.
