As for my perception of 1031 to DST, the beginning of the thread I was thinking of them as a possible replacement or fix-all solution.

Side deals are a direct violation of both the landlords and the tenant's contract with HUD.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/9232/55313-intro-to-section-8---your-perceptions-vs-my-realities

But it really has not perceptively changed much in my lifetime....

But if I were you and had such a negative perception of wholesalers, or any specific wholesale deal where I can't get a title fully insured, I would simply forego the assets offered by wholesaler/s.

so i think it's perceptive of you to notice. 

Men generally have better depth perception and are more used to moving objects so are many time better drivers BUT they take bigger risks and have more fatalities when they do crash.Women investors (stock market) many times will do what they are told to do and not do a lot of trading and will stay in stocks when the market tanks so end up coming out ahead of men.Like as @Jay Hinrichs mentions these capital calls could very well be a disaster for marriages where the man is in charge of the finances.

In my (one time) experience with section 8 I put my emphasis on my perception of the applicant's personality, work ethic and credit score.

Instead, I will let the community discuss who is good, who is bad, and call out their perceptions of the unethical/unprofessional. 

Nah, the contractors aren't upset, when you see someone's home burn down it changes your perception.

Best to change the locks anyway to eliminate any risk or perception of risk with the prior owners (or prior residents).
