I'm just launching a new 1031 calculator and I'd love to get your feedback on it.
It's at www.1031summary.com
Let me know what we could do to improve on it. Constructive comments would be appreciated. I'm also considering the possibility of co-branding it, so let me know if that would be interesting to you.
Also, for 1031 advice, the best 1031 attorney I've met is a guy named James Brennan. He's the 1031 expert from Wachovia. You can find his ActiveRain profile here and he's great at answering questions. His website is www.Inside1031.com

Lawrence,
Great post. Most professionals are not aware of the various permissible and non-permissible expenses in terms of 1031 exchange transactions. Kudos!
