For the first four properties that I purchased, the loan officers sent me "initial disclosures" which clearly stated the interest rate expected closing, expected monthly payment etc. 

@Adam Rivera, the 1031 has to  be a sale of investment real estate followed by a purchase of investment real estate. 

The long-term rental price can cover loan and related cost when we purchased it 8 years ago. 

Just purchased my first STR in March and looking to buy more.

There are a lot of people doing on-market here in Florida, if you are planning on going that route make sure to have the right disclosures to prevent any fines.Always disclose to your buyers that you are selling your equitable interest or rights to purchase the property.

Lastly, it cost money to sell real estate, typically 6-8% of the purchase price in transaction costs.

I could scale 10X in the states if I did not have to dedicate my efforts to the properties in the island.
