I jumped into real estate doing the BRRRR method, understanding that holding property will allow me to build generational wealth, but then learning that landlord income is not the best way to feed your family.

If you offer more $ for the property than the all cash offers AND you appear to the seller to be highly qualified in the method you are using for sourcing the payment, at some point your offer will be more appealing than the all cash offers.I don't understand why you would consider a 1031 for another property in two years. 

Any recommendation for the first steps I should take if I want to purchase my first rental property using the BRRRR method (or flipping).

For the value add we're going to fix up the roads, add a nice sign and fence, replace mailboxes, add lights and fix some plumbing leaks.

And then you can use that information to start to develop your own personal due diligence method: Crowdstreet.com, 1031 Crowdfunding, Akr7, Finresi etc.
