Treat this as a separate business and yourself as a client.

I recognize that I am in one of the hottest housing markets in the country.

@Rafael Campos I assist client with both assignment and double closes.

I would consider Airbnb for it, because while tenants have a short term view, airbnb clients have an extreme version of that, and considering the location, it makes a lot of sense.All that said; your point is well taken, I wouldn't have thought of looking into those factors.

I will be able to get this because the potential client CAN NOT qualify for a loan but has sufficient income to pay the new payment which will be $1,100 per month. 

These are reasons why some clients don't want to have to reveal their 1031.
