One of the main reasons for me to 1031 exchange to a bigger building is that it is almost impossible to take all the equity out when my father's income has not been good enough the last few years.

The current business cannot be used to help value the rent because it has been a dead business for the last year or more and that is why the owner has closed it and put it up for sale.  

I have been investing is Real estate for the last 10 years.  

Last week I closed on a deal I was following up for 5 months.

I, like you, did not have any estoppel agreements signed prior to closing when I purchased my property in Connecticut last year.

Last year she was talking about wanting a new car and she had just lost her husband. 

I have rehabbed 8 homes and wholesaled 9 more in the last 18 months and I don't see why it's so hard.

They'll kind of let it hang out until the very last minute? 

Need before last weekend of September. 

What was turned down last week, might be acceptable today.2nd problem, if this realtor is representing the seller, or the buyer and seller, she cannot disclose the actual dollar amount of previous offers.
