Can the profit from flip be used towards other property purchase with 1031 clause to reduce tax

I just got the word from my primary bank that we can move forward on a refinance on our primary residence and will be dropping to 3.6% on interest and reducing our 21 remaining years to 15 years.

I look for a big dog hedge fund (or crowdfunding) to buy up the bulk of Overtown.

One of the big risks that upon have is that if a probate is opened, your ability to control the deal will be reduced, perhaps radically if a court order confirming sale is required.

We have a good rent deal for the location, but any purchase (that we live in) can reduce our cost of living, and effectively: cash flow.

Keep in mind that you're reducing your profit due to extra closing fees.

If not, how do I get it reduced?

Can be reduced by using a flat fee listing agent.  

The sooner we post notices, the better.To maintain our work-life balance, we reserve Mondays for the bulk of our rental property work. 

This year I was able to reduce the trash bill by about $300 a month, converted each tenant to my new lease and had them start paying their own water bills, rehabbed the 4 units that were vacant, raised the rent in at least 50% of the units, and I just cut a check to the owners for August 2014 as $10,587.00.
