Google Ingrid Robinson and the American greed episode on Remington financial this will show you the scams these fake lenders use.

Business owners make money off of business execution not potential property appreciation.

Hi Akhtar,This is Michael from Coldwell Banker UAE, American Company with global presence.Saw you are currently in Dubai, would love to connect with you so we can meet and discuss about what current investors do so you would be well prepared for this industry!

If/when tenant does decide to buy it, lets say the total sum between rent credits and purchase option payment was $8,000, you can either take $8,000 off the purchase price or as i would prefer, keep the purchase price but produce a receipt as if the tenant already gave you $8,000 in EMD toward the purchase price so it would count as part of their down payment and make it more manageable for the tenant financially to execute the purchase.

Depreciation is real, though over such a short hold it shouldn't cause serious expenses, and executing a 1031 on the GP's schedule is never guaranteed. 

This financial strategy enabled timely project execution and ensured the necessary resources were available to complete the renovations.

But it's kind of like saying "does anyone want to back me in building a five star hotel" which you're probably not going to get any traction, unless you have a track record of working for a five star hotel developer for a few years and can demonstrate you truly know how to execute that type of development. 

I know a couple of Americans who have gone so far as to repatriate to the US for a couple of years - long enough to no longer be a "tax resident" under the J tax regime - in order to complete a shuffling/1031 rebalancing of their US portfolios. 

If it's an auction we have just dealt direct with the auctioneer.Maybe on your first deal you have an attorney do what you call "dirty work" but the best way to learn is to deal with the owners directly yourself, get permission to deal with the bank and execute the transactions on your own. 

Let's say you execute a P&S with the property owner and give them an EMD of $500.
