low-maintenance property is perfect for 1031 exchange


Sometimes an investor just needs a place to park some money. The Colorado ranch real estate market has returned to 2002-2003 pricing in many areas, and in some areas even lower than that. It’s a great time to land bank. Many properties demand a high level of maintenance, with irrigation, haying, cabins and homes, barns, and other expensive maintenance items. This property demands hardly any maintenance at all. Once the mountain real estate market recovers, it will be in demand as a mountain retreat property.
