Did a ride along yesterday with a friend who does industrial, SFH and MFH.  

I have worked my entire career in construction and last 2 years performing entitlements, permitting, and construction for industrial developments along the Wasatch.

These are the different properties that are included in the 1031 exchange requirement: commercial buildings such as offices, schools and different establishments that are important for the population, as well as single family rentals, multi family rentals, industrial facilities, and even raw lands are included in the like-kind.

There are many out-of-the-box solutions available for many industries.

The existing number of vacation rentals are so far over those caps that anyone who gets on the wait list today will likely wait 5-10 years before they're up for a permit.I do think this is the natural progression of what is still a relatively new industry.

Industrial land is not as valuable as an infill residential parcel.

I have been using Quickbooks online for years and love that it's the industry standard and robust software.

Quote from @Jake Thorpe: In this industry, there is a lot of incentive to bend the truth, some say dont say x to the lender.. and if something happens dont say y to the insurer. 

The first thing to know is that the 1031 Exchange Qualified Intermediary industry has no licensing or regulatory body. 

Real estate is a very capital intensive industry and if you do not have the money the odds of success are very low - it is no different than starting any other business - how many people do you know are successful when they start with zero?
