W.S. is SUPER easy and fast to loose a LOT of $. 

You want pre power of sale, the owner will atleast receive some money instead of loosing it all.

. ;-)  its just a lead source I would not follow their advice of course .. just a lead source its like a loose MLS for sub too.. you can always say no. 

But the IRS is not bound to follow any PLRs- not sure if a DST has been challenged in court.

Even though you are going to be the majority owner, remember that things can get a little wonky in business, and make no mistake, if you have 3 other "partners" in this deal, it is bound to happen at some point.

This could be a good deal if this is in an area that is bound to appreciate.

There’s a chance they will leave, but you’ll loose a lot by keeping them at that rate.

I'd just glue those loose corners back down, because that's how you rented the property.

I'm not sure what your specific numbers look like, but if your gain is within those bounds, taxes should be minimal.2.

That's your safety net, your wealth, and protection from loosing that 3.75% rate.
