When I watch TV shows about flipping houses and the big profits they make, I wonder if they are paying taxes as the go, or using 1031 exchanges on every one. 

You could offer to split the profits from any sale with the lender in exchange for them putting in the down payment on the property.

Can I sill use 1031 exchange?

Dear Jane.Perhaps we can exchange information. 

The property manager is trying to act as the facilitator and sent me an agreement saying they would try to get a 3% fee from the sellers estate but if they won't pay it, the buyer would be on the hook for the fee.The property manager asking for this fee is in exchange is going to show the property to prospective buyers and be an intermediary between buyer and executor.Does this seem customary and legitimate, and are there any potential pitfalls or things to look out for?

My first thought was to verify the title is good (like @Char Prado suggests) and catch up the mortgage in exchange for the deed.  

Any way we could have lunch someday and exchange ideas?

Feel free to connect and let’s exchange contact info.

Don't THINK I want the hassle of 1031 exchange with more properties  Just want the monthly income for now, (which I figure would be close to what we make now minus upkeep) .

I did start reading through previous questions, but we're in a bit of a time crunch and looking to get a specific answer.Can we use proceeds from a 1031 exchange to payoff existing mortgages on investments we already own?
