Regarding a 1031 exchange, it is important to have a conversation with your accountant prior to getting it done.

e.g. is it possible for someone to lend $100k on a deal in exchange for, say 6% interest rate plus 10% share of profits?

At 90+ days past due, the note investor will be eligible for our buyback option, wherein PPR offers to issue a cash refund for the note purchase price less payments received (payments include principal and interest) in exchange for the non-performing note.

You may also see a discount fee which means you are buying down your mortgage interest rate in exchange for higher upfront cost.

If you're not exactly excited about jumping back into the market, there Are passive investments that are eligible for 1031 exchange as well.

In exchange for a reasonable discount of course. 

Looking forward to connecting and exchanging ideas!

There are examples of DSTs that included an exit into a REIT that DID NOT ALLOW the investor to do a 1031 exchange.

@Heidi FahringerReal Estate Expertise - Are they familiar with real estate-specific tax strategies, such as depreciation, 1031 exchanges, and write-offs for repairs, property management, etc.?

Do that for a year or two and then help that owner buy another and you take a cut in the deal maybe in exchange for management.
