They are having a hearing open to Landlords, Tenants and stake holders (general public as well) to provide them with your comments, concerns and ideas.

Cash buyers, or those using hard money lenders, are much easier to deal with.I wouldn't be too concerned, though. 

The ego or smarts of the bigger fish IS a concern...starting out cpa is very important because I am small.

One thing to think about is that if you're contemplating doing a 1031 and buying a $500K investment and then converting that into your primary you will probably make even less than you are now on the investment house in the interim because you'll be trying to get investment cash flow out of a property that isn't best suited for investment use.It can certainly work but I sense a lot of other concerns than just the desire for a $500K primary residence.A lot depends on your geography but one option would be to do the 1031 and supplement with cash from the sale of your primary and purchase $500K of investment property free and clear. 

I welcome any comments, thoughts, concerns, encouragements, and experiences!

As far as I'm concerned there isn't a single good reason to not accept payments digitally.

I would obviously rather keep the real estate commission if we both agree not to use realtors, but am concerned about liability.

I'm mostly concerned about the slopes.

My biggest concern is that I have yet to hire a contractor to do inside work who ever completed the jobs.
