However, because of the market inflation we're unsure if we will find another property to qualify for the time deadlines of 1031.So here we are -- any advice on whether we should sell or rent? 

If rent is late in the future, for any reason, the late fee will be assessed and must be paid.When it comes to rent, I tend to be on the firm side as 1 day after the deadline quickly grows to 2 days, then 5 days, then 8 days, etc. 

Get a solid contract with deadlines and payment standards and hold them to it. 

With traits like outstanding work ethic, dedication to the project, meeting deadlines at all cost. 

I give them time to think it over and let me know- 4- 6 weeks- and a second deadline to sign a lease by- another 4 weeks. 

Well, we have no idea what your contract says, but in a standard contract this would not be a legit reason, unless changing lenders at this point would make you miss your financing contingency deadline or delay your closing, which the seller wouldn't have to agree to.

Key is you need to have the rent into your bank account and the company that meets your deadline gets the job. 

And this puts us way behind our deadline. 

Once you've built up a reasonably strong relationship with your title company, they do tend to help you hit hard deadlines in a pinch, bumping you to the font of the line because of the volume of business you're running through them.But even with that, 3 day close is pretty rough.

Because the proposed amendment changes the use by prohibiting certain rentals, I think this provision should apply.I also have a problem with the Written Consent as it does not allow you to vote no.Written Consent says deadline is Jan. 31, 2018.We could put together a letter objecting to the proposed amendment if you’d like."
