Doesn't mean it still wouldn't qualify but the shorter the hold the higher the bar if questioned.Conversely there's an infamous case from around 2013 I think where a developer had held a piece of property for almost 12 years and had his 1031 disallowed. 

You need to develop trust in a MENTOR.  

I have developed a focus/interest around purchasing small multifamily units as buy and hold investments in the Charlotte MSA and general surrounding areas within North Carolina (given that is where I currently reside).I am at the point where I would like to soon begin actively pursuing my first deal.

Hi All,Can you point me to the best architect in JC that has lots of experience doing 1-4 family new and existing development? 

If it is value-added or opportunistic (i.e. heavier  improvements or development) then the majority is expected to come from hoped-for price appreciation.

@Estephan Abeja, @Drew Brown, @Graham Harvey, @Michael Smith this is an issue our developers are working on and it should be fixed today.

Lots of new development happening in Cinci and growing FCC fan base! 

It is a nice, quiet neighborhood with good schools right across the bridge (about a mile away) from downtown New Brunswick which is a city home to Rutgers, RWJ Hospital, Johnson & Johnson, NJ Transit train to NYC and a lot of development going on including a brand new theater and a huge development project at the train station which will include shopping, food and apartments.

Also, for those that like to closely supervise, it may seem daunting ensuring legal claims don't develop against you when you can't physically check on the property yourself.

Oregon Is mean to us developers tax wise..But that does not slow down the great growth here and building opps.. its spectacular  for guys that cant compete say in the Bay area were values are so astronomical..
