Far from it.It was a combination of borrowers using their homes for ATM's, Wall St. hedge fund managers who created mortgage  backed security products and the greed of the lenders who needed to "feed the beast."

If you want to look into doing it yourself let me know, we handle almost 600 units in-house except in extreme circumstances and I can show you products and use to handle it.

IMO, devote your time productively in prepping for the sale.

The product that will probably be most likely for you to use on this property if it requires work is either a Fannie Mae Homestyle loan or a Hard Money loan.  

First you have not held it very long and secondly, your activity looks very similar to that of a developer which could mean that your intent would be perceived to be creating inventory rather than holding for productive use.

People THINK they can't buy, but in reality with FHA loans and other low cost mortgage products it os less expensive to buy than to rent.

You could also partner with a Manufactured home dealer they are always looking for land to put their product on. 

Property qualifying for 1031 is property you purchased with the intent to hold for productive use.
