Elise, looking at it a couple of times, here is my take: you do not have to send it if it is held by an entity ("A lessor includes only individuals, estates and trusts.") and also if it is for services from a non employee from out of state.

At this point, I plan to look for an individual lender rather than a company--someone local who makes his/her own rules and not a company.

My name is Kenya Richardson and I just wanted to get acquainted with like-minded individuals with some of the same goals.

@Theodore Arzt I can't answer about this specific individual but I can tell you I have rented to people with felony convictions before and they were fine. 

And as a group leader, there is only so much I can do as in individual. 

A person is also considered an accredited investor if he has a net worth exceeding $1 million, either individually or jointly with his/ her spouse.

That may seem like a stupid question, but if you were to take a look at my wall, you would see a multipage blown-up poster map of my target area from Google Maps, enlarged enough to show individual properties.

The proceeds from the sale of the original property must be held by a qualified intermediary escrow agent (the proceeds may not be received by the property owner wishing to engage in the 1031 exchange).Concerning you transfer of the property to LLC,  the IRS stated that an individual transferring replacement properties to a limited liability company (LLC) treated as a disregarded entity (i.e., SMLLC) does not violate the Section 1031(a)(1) requirement that the property be used in a trade or business or held for investment.So if your LLC is single member LLC, you can transfer( after you sort out Due on sale clause with your lender) 

This would be assuming that the individual planned on purchasing a small Multi-family to house hack.

It would be on an individual project basis so I'm wondering do I setup an LLC for each property, do I setup a Trust for each property or should they just willingly give my LLC the cash to purchase/flip etc and I guarantee them money back like a loan?
