We call this eliminating the need for a 1031 exchange.

@Jennifer GillThe only way to not get any calls about properties is to just sell them all and invest in stocks.

While my husband and his ex make a similar income and do not exchange child support due to us pointing that out in court a couple of years ago, she actively request all financial documents that she possibly can and examines our taxes, etc. 

They acquire assets, that can be paper assets (notes, stocks, etc.), hard assets (properties, land, etc.), businesses or commodities (gold, silver, oil, etc.).

A Title Company can distribute the proceeds based on the agreement, and consulting a CPA will help calculate tax liabilities and explore strategies like a 1031 exchange to minimize taxes.

I personally would look to a growing market and then exchange the money back to CA later, when things soften up.

I took no money from the cash flow (when there was any) and I never made a late payment to the bank.This fall, nearly 12 years after the bank gave me that house, and over 15 years after I knocked on that door - after evictions, vacancies, insurance claims, and never taking a dime out of it - I sold that house and placed all of the proceeds in a 1031 exchange.

@Bayo Badejo Agreed, that Zip touches a lot of different areas, from the national park to south of exchange.

Quote from @Marcus Ball: After struggling with local rehab properties in California, I switched to build-to-rent developers and chose a 1031 exchange.

What @Anna Sagatelova said about Cleveland properties is also true in Akron. 90% of the housing stock in the city of Akron was built before 1970 and there are quite a number of really fine A++ older homes especially in west Akron.
