I personally would spend that much to fail a couple of times to learn.

@Jennifer Burgener There’s really no reason to stay local with a 1031 company unless it’s just personal preference.

It's harder to give you an accuracy rating of those numbers, because a lot of the numbers you call will go straight to VM, so you don't know for sure if it's the right person. 

To be honest I do not send out a lot of letters and do not mass send things out so maybe I'm the wrong person to listen to.

The borrower is not personally liable for the loan, and the lender cannot seek additional repayment beyond the collateral.Since the borrower is not personally liable, they can choose to make larger or additional payments to pay down the loan faster if they wish.

Personally, I've been in the mobile home investing business since 2007.

And while grabbing an owner-occupied loan is typically a non-starter in a standard 1031 transaction, this is a mixed use property that does include a personal residence portion. 

To further complicate the process, this demand notice must now be attempted to be personally delivered to the tenant two separate times, on two separate days, before it can be legally posted upon the property.

Also, try to see if the lender will allow to buy under LLC for better assset protection; by doing personal gurantee. 

Are they different for rental property vs personal?
