@Sara Swift This is a HUGE reason why I opened up the property management arm of our brokerage.

@Luis Medina I used Lima One Capital.  75% loan to value.  10 year arm at 6.9% or so. 

Use arm's length lease-option documents along with the counsel of qualified professionals.

It was brand new and I taught a 20-year old woman how to drive it and I am the type instructor who gets emotional when teaching people the dangers of holding and shooting fire arms and driving off-road  dune buggies and quad runners.This dune buggy's gas throttle is the same as shooting a gun.

Lets say I have a 10 unit building I own free and clear I have had for 20 years and dont want to pay an arm a leg in taxes when I sell but I want more cashflow then what I have now.

As Steven said there are firms out there (such as Moss Adams, Cohn Reznick, etc) that have engineering arms that can complete a cost segregation analysis as well as a benefit analysis to see what the estimated tax savings could be using a cost segregation to shorten the depreciation periods.Josh

I have 2 seven-year ARMs on 2 of my 3 STRs. 

Still not sure how that relates to 1031 where the explicit intention is to sell.

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, but especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.
