Probably an ignorant sounding question:Can a property owner 1031 exchange out of a contract for deed once the contract is fulfilled?

For example, form an LLC and capitalize it with investor money in exchange for some percentage of the ownership.

Certain companies would not be eligible to use the exemption, including:o Non-U.S. companies,o Exchange Act reporting companies,o certain investment companies,o companies that are subject to disqualification under Regulation Crowdfunding,o companies that have failed to comply with the annual reporting requirements under Regulation Crowdfunding during the two years immediately preceding the filing of the offering statement, ando companies that have no specific business plan or have indicated that their business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies (no blank check companies).Investor Limitations Individual investors may, over a 12-month period, to invest in the aggregate across all crowdfunding offerings up to:o If either their annual income or net worth is less than $100,000, than the greater of:§ $2,000 or§ 5 percent of the lesser of their annual income or net worth.o If both their annual income and net worth are equal to or more than $100,000, 10 percent of the lesser of their annual income or net worth; Securities purchased in a crowdfunding transaction generally are restricted and may not be resold for one year. o Holders of these securities would not count toward the threshold that requires a company to register its securities under Exchange Act Section 12(g) if the company is current in its annual reporting obligations, retains the services of a registered transfer agent and has less than $25 million in total assets as of the end of its most recently completed fiscal year.

The buyer is using a company called welfont group to do a 170 exchange.  

This is a 1031 exchange.  

I would like to learn more about how to increase income from our rentals and possibly do 1031 exchanges in the future.
