You cannot use them to sell your primary residenceThere are ways to 'convert' your primary residence to an investment rental, and THEN do a 1031, but it takes time.

Or are the residents responsible for storing the energy and utilizing it for particular appliances and etc?

I still go home pretty often, but I currently reside in Maryland, about 20 mins from D.C.

There is a definition for "in the business" that is not relevant to my question.Here is my question:  What if Larry Landlord owns one single family residence in his own personal name.

This rental is a single family resident.

If you wait until age 59 1/2 or older to take an i-kind distribution of the property, federal taxes will apply,and depending on your state of residence, state taxes may also apply; however the 10% early distribution penalty will not apply. 

I purchased my first primary residence right out of college. 

I am new to the forum and wanted to know  if anyone knows if it is possible to do a 1031 exchange into a primary residence?

With 10 years of residency, its likely there will be significant work and little that you can charge against the tenants security deposit. 

I am an Arizona Resident starting an LLC.
