My advice for beginners would be to not compromise on your numbers. 

I’m sure a few will sell at the right compromise for both parties, but not a lot of transactions.

You compromise.

@Martin Rubio you can invest in a private offering if you are not an accredited investor if:You are sophisticated enough to evaluate the deal and make an educated decisionYou can afford to lose your investment without compromising your financial well-beingYou find a sponsor that has an offering that is not advertisedThe sponsor is allowing non-accredited investors into the offering (they are limited to 35 or fewer non-accredited investors in any given offering)You have a pre-existing personal or business relationship with the sponsorThe challenge here is that you cannot invest in any offering that is using the 506(c) exemption, which allows them to advertise.

Which law applies, state or fed, makes little difference.The reality is that simply because you have a applicant that receives preferential treatment does not mean you are obligated to compromise your standards.

We have excellent reviews and our employees are compromised exclusively of investors

Sit down with your accountant and find a balance between a full deferral under 1031 and paying the full tax without any kind of 1031,  A compromise might be to buy something for 200K.  

Love that line by the detective "life is full of ****** compromises..."

Each unit has a small balcony out back, and if they are neat about it, that would be my version of a compromise.

Rather than compromise the quality of the investor's experience, I try to ask questions to get a better understanding.
