On our last visit, we rented a condo.The other thought I had is finding a place near one of the major cancer treatment centers like Moffitt in Tampa or Mayo in Jacksonville.

Your new agent also broke the law, tortuous interference, and the NAR code of ethics. 

@Brya Freeland A lack of ambition and work ethic isn't what typically sink these investments.

It affects tax treatment since you may not be able to use depreciation and have to treat the gains at a higher tax rate.In the simplest terms, did you buy it solely with the intent of selling at a higher price and that is the only way you'll make money (i.e. no rent collections)?

Review Agency, review the Code of Ethics, look at your local and state regulations; then also tally the total expenses to carry a license...

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

The ethics complaint has been submitted to the bar now-a 100-page document with all of the attachments outlining his conduct.  

A tax lien is not going to be a deeded interest in actual real estate so it's not going to qualify for 1031 treatment.

So, its not necessarily the vendor/company but the loan officer personality and work ethic that you are looking for. 

I was also told by a different agent that discussing other offers in this way was against their code of ethics?
