My intention is to educate them regarding making sound and realistic life choices and financial decisions.

Ill admit i was browsing on Facebook for solar companies in chicago and always asked the following:1.

I hope I dont come across as trying to take advantage of my dad in this post, that is not my intention at all, I am happy to do this for him as a favor and spend the time finding properties, working with the agent, etc.

Property that is eligible for a 1031 is property you purchased with the intent of holding for investment use. 

Well you need to make your intentions clear from the beginning.

Any suggestions around taking legal action against the company owners, lodging complaints to BBB and other media outlets to publicize their unfairly actions … especially as their intentions looked fraudulent to start with (person that I had approved and thought was my tenant had never applied and turns out to be someone else.

New to the real estate game but have the intention of making my first deal before the end of the year.

I think I added value by being very genuine and honest about every intention I had with the property.

Ill have to reach out to the agent and check with all those that you mentioned and find out if its worth pursuing.
