Anyway, I am in fact my own custodian, so I would like to figure this out.

To confirm, the idea is that the owner would exchange proceeds from the home sale,  for fractional ownership in an REIT institutional grade property with an intermediary (1031 portion).  

It depends on which sale you are buying at.

The median home value is around $165,000, median sale price is around $260,000.

Some are still trying to figure out what drives them.

You'll need to work with a General Contractor (GC) to get all figures dialed in before you get approved for the loan.Land Loans: These are definitely doable, however the terms are not the greatest.

But the bank usually still exercises their right to enforce the DOSC because title changing hands meets the bank definition of a sale.

Some locations landlords typically pay, some locations the tenants pay.I don't expect that a settlement to stop advertising commissions in the MLS will have an impact on leases, or sales for that matter.

I also understand, if you flip your personal property to rental then you can be exempt 2-5 years of sale date.Two questions here:1.

I figured that flipping an 80s or 90s mobile home would be not only quicker and easier to do than a regular property but it would also be great learning for any rehab I would have to do in other properties I eventually hold.
