(new apartment complexes). 

I will note, that it can become more complex depending on what contracts you have on the property.  

Many advisors don’t understand the complexities of real estate investing, fail to provide tax strategies, and, unfortunately, some are more focused on selling products for commissions rather than offering real value.That said, not all financial advisors are the same.

I have an attorney in Illinois (Sottile and Barile) who we use that might be able to provide some assistance on this as it could get complex in regards to the situation - especially if any of the current deed holders have children involved.

@Chris Seveney really, you think it's ok if all the apartment complexes stopped sharing rental history? 

Hi William,Sounds like you had everything you need to for a simple case however, this case seems more complex.

Too complex and the need to bring additional financing in kills the value of the 1031. 

I have owned multiple multifamily complexes in Yakima for a number of years.  

In the world of commercial real estate, especially for those of us involved in wholesaling, hard money lending, and larger commercial transactions, finding truly qualified leads can be one of the toughest parts of the job.Unlike traditional real estate, commercial deals require a more complex understanding of financing, deal structure, and the unique needs of clients—many of whom are investors looking for specific ROI targets.

.* The importance of consulting a CPA—The Section 179 election can be a valuable tax strategy, but it’s also complex and should be made in the context of your entire tax picture.
