They want more online leads, but I'm quickly learning their bigger issue is outbound sales & marketing, i.e. understanding who their customers (and referral partners) are and engaging them meaningfully.I've been lurking on BP and researching their build areas and it seems like their primary clients are developers and investors, not individuals building their dream vacation home (though they are part of the mix).Their value prop is dollar efficiency and speed.

@Tylere WeaverIf you sell now and seller finance it I do t believe you can then do a 1031 later as the property was already sold.Check with your intermediary- there are several here on BP you can engage with.
