Quote from @Andrew Syrios: Welcome to KC Leo, I would definitely recommend getting involved in MAREI, the real estate investor association here. 

I have attended plenty Padsplit events and talked to my Account Executive (AE) and some veterans from Padsplit (the real expert, not newer sales person), and some Padsplit investors who own them and love them. 

Admittedly, pricing will often account for any major items, and I don't believe this is true in Sandy Springs, but there are some areas that an interstate cuts off a small part of the neighborhood, and so labeling the neighborhood as "good" may be true for 90% of that neighborhood, but if you are in the 10% that is on the "wrong side" of the interstate, it can be a totally different market.

Account Closed I have not had any updates or heard anything.

My somewhat unique situation is that I have low reported income due to the structure of my investment accounts, yet I have access to meaningful capital.

We want to avoid letting money just sit in the bank account when we know we could be making it work for us.

The property manager will be involved for years, and they want it to be something easy to manage.

Would getting an attorney involved be best?

I would talk to an accountant about future planning for any REI investments for your 1031 questions & to discuss depreciation for rentals.
