@Tito Taiwo  From the sounds of it, this is going to be an unsecured loan (meaning your loan will not be secured by the hard asset - i.e. the property).

If you want to completely defer all tax  then of course you'll need to line up the 1031 and complete it with the purchase of that property you'll then use for investment (with some personal use) prior to moving in and converting it to your primary.But the other way would be to start a 1031 exchagne in one year in such a way that it's 180 period crosses over into the next year.
