we worked through the old owner and tried to get to the kids when ever possible.. all leads were leads until the logs were on the ground.. a few things we did to speed things up  were as posted above and pretty obviouswe set up 1031s  but hard to sell to an 80 year old who could not fathom how that could be legal.and a few did charitable remainder trusts  probably even more complicated and the ones' where we bought those deals I would say the sellers were pretty savvy folks not your typical tree farmer. so as many have stated whats the sellers best interest and your best interest is many times vis a vi taxation not aligned in any manner.

If he's looking to do a 1031 its most likely for tax purposes.

Is a legal document required for tax purposes?

My lease specifically states tenant responsibility to reduce the risk of mold and holds them liable for causing it.At this point, you let one kid out of the lease, so that probably made things worse and lead to the other parents believing their kids should not be there. 

It is way easier to get back on the path that you know so well and not cut through the brush and blaze a new trail, but the problem is that although it is easier to go back to what ya know, that path leads to the same unfulfilling results they have always received.Just a few of my thoughts from the top of my head.  

In a syndication (especially if you’re not in the country) you’re somewhat dependent on the lead to figure it out.Here’s where I see the fly in the ointment.
