We are doing a 1031 exchange however we are having issues getting pre-qualified for a mortgage for a rental property that would equal the sell amount of the original property ($425k) due to changes in jobs and relocating etc.

I needed the access to run comps, verify data, etc for them.  

Would it be possible for my in-law to sell 500k of the house to my spouse and I, use that 500k to buy herself a new cheaper house to move into, and then we all sell the original house together 2 years later for a total of 1m tax exemption?
