Someone like @Dave Foster Ask them if they’d look on your documents for a fee.

@Dave Foster, thank you very much for this info. 

@Dave Foster as mentioned above is the man!

Establish good communication and relationships with your tenants to foster a positive renting experience for both parties.

There are several investor meet-ups across the state where you can meet someone with the experience and willingness to help foster your development idea (or at least connect you to someone who can).

Quote from @Dave Foster: @Tyler Prosser, Great strategy!!! 

@Dave Foster It was our primary, then moved to rental for last 2 years..thus fitting into both the 121 and 1031 options, no?

Quote from  Foster: @Anthony Quint, the 1031 exchange is something you don't have in CA that allows you to sell appreciated real estate in the US and purchase new real estate while indefinitely deferring paying tax on profits.The thing about this for a non US citizen is that you will be subject to a 15% withholding called the FIRPTA withholding tax.
