Since i haven't used a 1031 exchange yet, I wasn't aware you couldn't escrow the proceeds to the next investment without taxes.If i understand you correctly this is because a flip is a short term investment and a 1031 can only be performed on long term purchases?  

Have you built financial models that allow you to quickly and easily evaluate a property and also track your investment's performance?

I currently have an investment property that I am looking to move and would like to know if anyone knows of other places besides here to find highly motivated buyers for well performing properties.

Trust + Like = Listing Success   Competence + Actual performance = Life long client/friend/referrals.Good luck!

You may as well go invest in stocks if you want someone else's decision making performance to rule your investments.  

Although, the forum open to anyone who is willing to answer.What if the property is under performing, and I can, within 6 - 12 months, bring it up to speed.

My seller wants to get the property sold and wants to make sure the buyer performs and as has already been said, if the buyer is serious about buying it makes no difference if the put down $500 or $5000.  

Like in any business, gotta find the up and coming super performer.

I have a casual friend who is a brand new Realtor.
