Then compare it to my data-fed program.

When successful it is quite rewarding and can lead to favorable basis and financing opportunities but there are certainly risks and its important to have plenty of reserves and be realistic with time frames.

I'm leaning toward the decision to sell, as the expected rewards do not seem worth the risk (or opportunity cost). 

Compare this to selling the Market A property in year 3 which has appreciated 5% a year and is now worth $550,000.00.

A HELOC gives you flexibility since you can draw as needed and only pay interest on the amount you use, which might be useful if you’re not sure exactly how much you’ll need upfront.That said, it’s important to compare the interest rates between a HELOC and your expected returns in the stock market—if you’re making more in your investments than you’d pay in interest, it could be a good play. 

Ironically, platforms designed for real estate (Zillow, Apartments.com, Rentler, etc.) produce very few tenants for me, compared to FB Marketplace (and I also find a lot of their functionality to be user un-friendly, from the landlord side). ...you'd think that platforms custom-made for real estate would make the process a snap for landlords, but it takes me a lot longer to post and manage rental listings on Zillow or Rentler than it did on Craigslist.

without comparing property tax and maintenance costs the 1% rule is meaningless.

Then the market leveling off heavily come 2023 and 2024 compared to a market like 2021..

See, in SFR (1-4 unit) the primary driver to valuations is comp's, market sale comparable, what so-n-so sold there place for last week/month etc..
