A buyer of said property will buy it to monetize it.

Have you considered the potential of utilizing the "asset island" method for primary ownership of properties, and than via NNN master lease to individual operating LLC's for business monetization use? 

For me, it's pretty simple - I'll buy a house if it meets my guidelines, the key one is simple: can I make at least $400 mo. net with a proper margin of safety? 

The new owners got serious about monetizing the platform and it has progressed accordingly.

That nugget was “monetize your leads” mainly the ones you may not use.

So that essentially kills -$1,050/mo temporarily.While we are occupying the property:Effective Income (2/3 units): $1,932/moTotal Operating Expenses: $1,128/moNet Effective Income: $804/moPITI: $1,145/moCash Flow: ($-341) ..not bad considering I've been paying $1,100/mo in empty rent checks.

Looking to monetize newly acquired properties as rental in the short term.

Good Afternoon BP, I'm working on a lead right now and I think I've exhausted all the "normal" routes on monetizing this lead, so I was hoping someone with experience in the Phoenix market could assist on this one. 

My first rental was likely overpaid for back in 2007, I still own it, still makes money, and by this point I'm now clearing $300/mo net compared to next to nothing early on, simply due to the 9+ years of time between then and now.

A good solution for you might be to use a Monetized Installment Sale instead of a 1031 exchange.
