Leaving stuff unresolved, with anything, especially divorce, is an energy vampire that is always hungry. 

Quote from @Nate Sanow: Yes I own two that are near 100 years old and I will tell you they are a pain in the you know what compared to all of my post WW2 properties especially post 1980… layouts are better in the last 50 years and energy efficiency is better and I can keep going… HOWEVER to reply to the other aspect of your question, I’ve found appreciation is better with older properties in areas of the path of progress.

I have been burned in Charleston Co SC and Folly Beach SC by changes in the STR laws after purchasing so obviously I’m very nervous to have this happen again.

I'm living off of cash reserves and burning through it - there is a well dry date looming on the horizon.

You’re risking other people’s money and you also need to get burned if it goes bad.  

A coach won't do it for you, so you need to be sure you fully understand what you're looking to achieve and have the time and energy to get the results.

It is a matter of getting out of your comfort zone a little bit but not so much that you will burn out or lose sleep.

For your part, it might seem like a free roll of the dice to go to court, but there are surprises and landmines along the way, litigation always takes far longer than anybody expects, and the time and emotional expense of fooling with litigation are energy drains on more productive endeavors.

I won’t try to tell you what to do other than if there’s certain properties that just consume way more energy you might consider 1031ing them into slightly larger properties where you could get better economies of scale for your time and expenses.
