@Peter Crabtree if the tenant still wants to pay with cash, he can pay at 7Eleven with Pay Near Me, you just need to set it up with the company, than you can provide him with a Bar code that they scan at 7 eleven and the money goes directly into your account.

I am looking for referrals or recommendations on contractors that can remove existing laminate countertops, knock down the existing high top and convert to low top bar countertops.

Thank you.If your friend can clear the intent bar and begin the 1031, I'm having a tough time seeing how he'll be able to structure it as one exchange unless he is selling the entirety to one investor.

@Dan Barli how do you know they're good contacts absent a recommendation? 

@Taylor Wells 1) good question 2) I'm sure there are countless ways but what I've done is use BP's search bar and typed in my city.

@Dan Barli, no we haven't talked with a lawyer yet. 

That belongs to the tenants and will be spent by you to make repairs of things they damaged (barring you have a move in evaluation from the previous management company/owners).

I know people who don't have a pot to **** in or a window to throw it out of and they're going out multiple times a week to eat or they're going to the bars, driving there in their late model car (OK - so that's one nice thing they might have) as they pay rent to landlords and have little savings. 

The lady that bought it really loved 2 things-the kitchen I re did and put in with a snack bar and the terraced front yard with flowers, lots of bulbs,  burning bushes, fruitless pear tree, etc. 

My house does not and will not have a sauna, message staff, cereal bar, sushi chef, nap pods, or any of the other half dozen things that many of these tech campuses offer.
