I'm wondering if it's worth the time following up. 

This is what I come up with base on the following assumptions:1. $40k repair2. 3% closing cost3. 50% Operating ExpenseThis is a template I use myself, it's not proven useful/accurate. also considering all the assumptions ...

Sorry Account Closed, The 1031 is a sale of investment real estate followed by a purchase of investment real estate.
