At least spread the fee out over the tenancy, standing behind your placement choice.  

I'm in the Phoenix market, you can still find good prices off/on market and get good spread on deals all over out here.

It looks like you have a healthy spread from purchase to ARV. 

In today’s market you need a GREAT spread between your purchase and ARV values and that isn’t the easiest thing to find in a high market. 

A .5% post-tax "spread" between highly volatile projected stock market returns, and the guarantee of a 7% return (by not having a mortgage payment) just makes no sense, to me. 

Right now, the buy-in is so high in NJ, they are locking up deals at prices that aren't sustainable and chasing spreads that are way too big.

You simply assign the contract and that buyer closes with his own source of funds.However, there are situations where either you cannot or don't want to assign:CANNOT:Most every REO, HUD, or Short Sale purchase offer contract will be rejected if And/Or Assigns is named in the Buyer field.DON'T WANT:If you have a particularly high profit spread between the A-B and the B-C, your C Buyer many times will not allow it and demand a smaller assignment fee.

After taxes and fees, and depending on if you plan to depreciate it at all, you may not have to pay anything or much in taxes. 7-22k spread minus closing costs (also the eviction costs are a write off as well) isn't going to be too much in taxes depending on what you decide to do. 

Production builder spreads are pretty thin. 

Opting for a DST allows investors to spread their investments across multiple high-quality properties, benefiting from the advantages of a 1031 exchange to defer capital gains tax.
