They would get that $500K tax free and the rest of the tax would be deferred in the 1031.A very elegant solution that puts $500K tax free in their hands now.

I guess it can save you some time managing, for example one tax bill, one insurance bill. 

But at a $1.5M asking price, as long as you don't have to spend more than $300k in rehab (without raising rents), this is a slam dunk deal that should easily be financed  at 75% LTV by a "investment real estate-friendly" bank/credit union that is located fairly close to the properties.

Your actual property taxes alone on that will be over $10K a year in 2025 and don't forget about that supplement tax headed your way.I would suggest keeping the others and maybe changing to LTR if that will give you consistent cash flows.  

@Stefano Vrolijk it all depends on your credit history, whether you have an SSN/ ITIN and how much you can put down.

Wyoming has no state income tax.4.

Now, this would obviously be negatively cash flowing since you would need to pay taxes and insurance.

Yes, your rate will change but not much if you have good credit it will go up around 5.875% to 6%.
