go to your reia  meetings and do heavy networking..not to be a Debbie downer but wholesaling is VERY tough and especially in hot =markets like phxit would be easier in Indy, and in Dallas its a contact sport... not sure you came to greener pastures.. or brown desert as it were.you will find wholesalers at the reia's though no doubt.

Recent interpretations have specifically cited that the performance of 1031 will only shelter the closing entity and seller from repercussions in a  firpta withholding situation if the exchanger completes a simultaneous exchange or has received a certificate of withholding.

Yardi Matrix has predicted we will also be the #1 rental growth market in the nation in 2017 with 10% year-on-year growth, and 8.5% growth next year.For some anecdotes, in the past couple months I've met a handful of clients who are all young couples that are professionals in their late 20's & early 30's, and are leaving the uber-expensive Bay Area and are looking to settle down here in Sacramento where housing is more affordable.Sacramento offers enough of a "big city feel" for Bay Area residents and has several colleges, major sports teams, an international airport, etc.

@Shawn Davis While I'm just getting into the purchasing game as opposed to the selling game, I know lots of investors who have built their entire portfolios (very well performing portfolios) in this market.

The usual course of affairs is the the heirs get the property at a step up and if they want to continue real estate investing they will either sell immediately with no tax or they will continue to hold for a period of time and then start performing 1031 exchanges themselves.As they get closer to an age for retirement or when they get tired of active real estate management they will position their portfolios from active to passively managed properties and philosophically from growth/appreciation properties to cashflow/maintenance properties.
