To mitigate this I did a rehab budget based on J Scott's book and worked in an extra 30% for unexpected cost. - if I find that I am overwhelmed managing the property, I have factored in 10% for property management, but would like to take a shot at self management. - I uses other sold 3/2 manufactured homes in the same neighborhood for my ARV then added in a 5k buffer.- Besides the forced appreciation from the rehab I dont factor in any appreciation in my calculations. - Also worked in the budget is labor cost for the rehab, if I do the work I will save money and increase my CoC, but because am currently employed at 60hrs a week I will likely hire out contractors. - I feel that 10% CapEx/maintenance should cover any damages (I have extra capital set aside for pop up expenses)-I view this home as a stepping stone to a larger portfolio and a good way to learn about the business with out being fully invested in a large multifamily or extensive rehab that requires roof, foundation ect@Bill F. - my ideal tenant is a family that wants the advantages the school district offers but cant afford a 40k down payment on a 200k home.

Paul Allen From 1031 Exchange to Primary Residence

So if they did a 1031 into a nice FL rental and used it as rental for 2 years and then moved in and lived in it for 3 years they could sell and take 3/5ths of the gain tax free up to the limits of sec 121 after they recapture depreciation.It's not the total windfall it was in the early 2000s but it's still a great opportunity to mitigate some of the pent up gain from 1031ing over the years as a retirement strategy.
