In general what qualities care you looking for and what skills are expected ?

I guess maybe I am sometimes a little  too trusting of these "professionals" diagnostic skills.  

Tenants with bad financial skills tend to have other problem areas, like cleanliness, relationships, employment, etc. 

Luckily, having a pro on your team makes an otherwise daunting transaction much easier.You have to purchase a like-kind property, which just means you can't trade your current real estate for a vintage car or fine art.There are some timelines to adhere to:You need to formally identify up to three like-kind properties within 45 days of selling your current prop, which means you should be looking by the time you go to market.You need to close on the new property or properties (yes, you can buy more than one if the math works out) within 180 days of selling the current prop.You can identify more than three properties if you need more choices or are planning to exchange for multiple props (often an issue for people selling very valuable RE or reinvesting in cheaper markets) but there are some rules:You can identify as many as you like, as long as the total value of all of them does not exceed 200% of the value of your current prop.

Very low chance you have proper zoning to put mobile home(s) on land.Fact as I hear iit:  there has not been a new mobile home park permitted in the last 20 years (what I hear at the MHP trade shows).TX counties might be more open...

They will then hold a separate brokerage trading account to keep contingency capital working productively.

Jim I would like to get together to trade stories and learn from your experiences.

Obviously that raises other concerns.Tenant selection is always a bag of worms and takes some background and skills. 

I find that to be a good way to improve my social skills and really get back to real values in a text and messaging society.

I've been successful hiring (and supervising) skilled workers for a multitude of tasks directly from Craigslist.
