You especially do not want to wait till the 45 day identification before you start talking to people.Good Luck!!!

These can help with growth market identification and based on your goals, plans, etc. could help filter out some of the noise.

Hi @Anabel Lop, if you are making money in the United States and have records to prove it, you can look into getting an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number loan (ITIN).

You can look into a DST as a 1031 backstop if your identification period deadline is getting close.

You could try to get all of the relinquished properties to sell and close as part of one 1031 Exchange transaction, identify the one replacement property during the 45 calendar day identification period, and then acquire and close on it toward the end of your 180 calendar day exchange period once all of the relinquished properties have closed.  

They need identification.

I received no advice at any time during the identification period except a generic form letter just stating dates and deadlines. 

For each occupied unit: current lease, move-in checklist, etc.Current rent ledger or rent roll for each tenant.Corresponding rental application & identification for each tenant.Signed Assignment of Property Management, Leases & Rents.Rental registration/license for each property.All notices, attorney contact information, etc. for any eviction(s) in process.Clear picture of all property keys, named, so know which lock/unit/building they are for.Transfer of security deposit(s).Notification to tenant(s) introducing you as their new landlord.

For 1031 purposes, the owners of record for the relinquished property and replacement property must be the same, which is what you said, and if the 1031 time limit for identification is OK, there should be no problem from the 1031 standpoint.

Underwriter seems to have the problem that the second building has a separate address for utility identification.
