If you say provide and install 15 pieces window $9000, he could give you a single glass pane window when you asked for French window.

I'm looking for a piece of land around the Finger Lakes.

We're confident in our RE agent, which is a big piece of the puzzle.

Another idea would be to lean towards the equine piece and cater towards often wealthy horse owners that may want to stay in a cabin and do trial riding.

I have some in my office from 1975, pea green, that hasn't had a wax/buff job in 15 years that still looks serviceable - not shiny, but all in one piece.

All the furniture items can be shipped to the property and you may need to hire friends or college kids to assemble furniture or meet the delivery people (that takes the most time) If you took some time and got the major pieces in place, a friend with the "decorating gene" could fill in with reasonably priced decor from my favorite stores TJ  Maxx or Homegoods with a modest budget. 

Your tax lawyer can guide you, but generally the reinvestment needs to go into the same kind of investment; so property proceeds would be put into a new piece of real estate.

If anyone has any advice on that I'm all ears.

Currently I would have every piece that I need in order to wholesale, I have (1) a solid contractor, (2) a realtor to run comps, (3) and a way to analyze the deals.

However, if you are going to give this person a piece of the pie, make it clear that they need to be at the property every day and riding the contractors to keep it on schedule.
