It is always best to take a firm position and say no otherwise you are heading down a rabbit hole.

Talk to a Civil Engineering firm with experience in "land development". 

@Monét Marshall, as Luka said, my law firm focuses almost exclusively on real estate law and closings in the Nashville/middle Tennessee area.

Please note I'm an elder law attorney in Pennsylvania, (feel free to google my firm to confirm - and each state's interpretations of the federal rules are different.

You can always transfer to other firms once you stand up on your feet.

I'd be looking to invest about an hour south/west of DC If you invest out of state you'd be a total madman to do it any other way than with a turnkey company &/or a Property Management firm that also sells rentals.

I recommend Just going with a Separate branch, an entrepreneur who started his own management firm. 

There are many QI firms like ours who do nothing but 1031 exchanges.  

Inherited tenants can be a pain; however, if possible negotiate terms strategically and stay firm in implementing management protocols in order to create a win-win.

All of these firms had mentioned property management in their fees and other literature but once I asked they all baulked.
