Then you'll have to figure out how you fund the project (land purchase + build costs).

-Do you have a property manager that you turn the home over to after purchase and they take care of everything?  

The 1031 must be a sale of investment property followed by the purchase of investment property. 

Alternative route I chose, I will leverage my duplex (purchased 4 years ago) equity through house hacking to have skin in the game on next flip.

I assume a higher upfront cost as far as land purchase and the actual build but you would have a brand new house, instant equity and hopefully maintenance free for quite a while.

You need to look at it from the property owner's angle, and reverse engineer the problems & objections that are going to arise, such as:1.

A common misconception is that you have to put down 20% of the purchase price.

It is a 6 bedroom property that sleeps 28 people.our last purchase is in La Fortuna and it is an awesome property that is in the process of being remodeled with another story on top. 

I'm looking to purchase a single family home as an investment property (buy and hold strategy).

Quote from @Fernando NA: Hello everyone,I’m considering purchasing a piece of land near Divide, CO, to build a small off-grid log cabin and list it on Airbnb or similar platforms.For those of you who live in the area or have experience with this, I have a few questions:>Is it possible to list such a property on Airbnb given the local regulations?
