Recently we actually had a guest who was part of spring training - he wanted his girlfriend to stay in one of our resorts, so she would have access to the amenities while he was off training.

I’ve done some highly profitable “one off” deals in my 40+ years (and a few that turned out losers!)

Are they auctioned off at the same time? 

We found this off market in pre for-closure How did you finance this deal?

the wholesale facebook groups are a great place to start for finding deals on land off market etc . realtors can also assist with on market land that are both with and without plans already approved 

First off, a qualified intermediary (QI) is required in a 1031 exchange.

I can tell you they worked their asses off and didn't rely on the Academy to be the saving grace but a tool in the tool belt not the belt.

@Randy Iagnemma Yes, We meet on the last Tuesday of every month, but we take December off because of the holidays. 

I would work with an investor-friendly agent who focuses on cold-outreach methods like cold-calling, cold-texting, etc to bring you off-market deals.

If the damage amount is low you may want to move on and write it off.
