For several properties, I have identified the owners, how much they owe in taxes, and estimated values of their property. 

The 1031 Law (speaking practically)These rules apply to any exchange:Must complete within 180 calendar days of the sale of your relinquished propertyMust identify up to 3 replacement properties within 45 daysOnly complete tax deferral if the final value of the replacement property is worth at least as much as your net sale price for the relinquished property.If you trade down in value, the difference is taxableKeep the same taxpayer across propertiesYou can exchange into (and out of) any state and many US territoriesThere are lots of different assets that qualify as valid replacement targets in a 1031, so think broadlyI'll stop there and see if you have additional questions or want to expand on any point. 

Identify a market and understand it as much as you can and build up confidence and abilities in that "sweet spot" of your strategy + market.

., This market is/has been exceptionally difficult when trying to locate and identify replacement property as part of a 1031 Exchange transaction. 

Your Qualified Intermediary should be able to walk you through your closing/settlement statement and identify those items that are permissible vs. non-permissible so that you can decide if you want to contribute out-of-pocket funds into the closing to offset the taxable boot. 

@DeWitt GibsonAttempting to syndicate or crowdfund has become easier than ever; successfully crowdfunding or syndicating is much much more difficult.The lines between crowdfunding and syndicating are now very thin so that each contains elements of the other, a successful syndication will have an online aspect with many similarities to a crowdfunded project.For a successful capital raise in real estate, the following are essential1- A verifiable track record of success by the sponsor2- A professionally prepared Private Placement Memorandum, Subscription Agreement and Operating Agreement3- Compliance with Reg D 506 b or 506 c, Reg A or Reg A+, or Intrastate fully compliant offering4- A large majority of ownership interest and benefits going to the capital investors5- A no felony background check of the sponsor6- Specific identified properties that will be acquired7- A relatively small percentage of invested capital going for fees, costs and sponsor”s “promote”.8- A professional online “platform” with all compliant security measures9- A minimum projected return to investors commensurate with the risk 10 - Return of capital plus a minimum of profit to investors before sponsors get their cut11- A quality dealI have successfully completed over 200 syndications, each between $400,000 to $4,750,000.I have examined thousands of other sponsors offerings.

If I was in your shoes I would first try to narrow down your search criteria and identify boundaries for each.

@Vera Todoriko nothing automatically suspicious about the job sending people to a web site or it needing social security # to identify. 

Denver eyes turning off natural gas, requiring all-electric new buildings in climate pushDenver wants new construction in a few years to be “net-zero energy” buildings that use only electricity from renewable sources, slashing city greenhouse gas emissions.The plan, and the building code changes it calls to have phased in starting in 2024, doesn’t explicitly ban future construction from hooking up to natural gas, the fuel used to heat the space and water in nearly all Denver buildings.But it does call for requiring new construction to use all-electric heat and water heating, first in homes and then offices and large multifamily buildings, and then require enough new solar power with development projects so that new buildings in Denver after 2030 won’t use any energy from fossil fuels.Denver’s Net-Zero Energy New Buildings & Homes Implementation Plan, produced by the city’s Climate Action, Resiliency & Sustainability office, will be the subject of hearings before a city building code task force this summer and then City Council hearings later this year.The plan phases in requirements for all-electric systems in new construction, described in one goal as having new buildings and homes be “free from natural gas” by 2030.City climate officials, when asked, didn’t identify any role natural gas could have in future new buildings.
