I ain’t no lawyer (except on the Internet), so will possibly have to resort to checking with the lender (BoA) to confirm as I didn’t see anything in the contract that suggested that it closes if I’m no longer resident.James

Retain a lawyer and sue for damages? 

I have invested $0 dollars into real estate investments but am on the cusp of investing $50k into my first multifamily syndicate (we're closing within a couple of weeks).I'm looking for a CPA to answer a few of my questions and a lawyer to look over the documents I need to sign for the deal.One of my main questions is, I've been told I'll receive a K1 statement and that my monthly returns will be tax free. 1) Is it true they will be tax free? 

If all else fails, I think the seller should be able to hire a lawyer to do a quiet title action to resolve the issue.

Quote from @Bryce Cover: if you aren't getting licensed yourself, are most of you leveraging realtors for your transactions, lawyers, or representing yourselves in these transactions?

Ensure you work with a team that is familiar with them (accountants / lawyers).A 1031 exchange is a way for real estate investors to defer paying taxes on the sale of investment property.

Doctor lawyer $1,000 per month.  

So unless im prepared to lawyer up 3k just to try and get some of it back the answer "just walk away from your deposits, im trustworthy" doesnt work for me.I have prepaid for work from big names, Lowes installs etc.

Do I need to talk to a real estate lawyer for my own lease, or do I use a site like RocketLawyer?

Find a lawyer and issue a lease violation for other issues such as excessive noise and furniture removal.
