The biggest downside of a 1031 is the limited time that you have to identify a replacement property.

Are you doing fix n flips, real estate development projects, or both?

Looking for Real Estate Agents advice.I have a Lot in Mancelona, Michigan and I had been thinking to Develop it.

Once you sell the property, you have 45 days (out of the total 180 days) to identify a property (i.e. get under contract) and than another 135 days to close the sale, which get's you to the total of 180 days. 

On 35805, I'd say that at least the areas between Lowe Mill and the 805 district campus, and the new development going up just down the road on governors, that small area has taken it from sketchy to cool. 

However, I guess I was speaking on the front end with business development.

A mentor relationship usually develops and isn't paid. 

The town is doing a lot in terms of development/ improvement of public spaces. 

@Chai Jonn Regardless of which guru you go with you will still have to develop your own relationships to get into deals.
