If you are investing in NC, you  may have the funds to get the property your aiming for.

There's some complicated ways around it and things may have improved, but I can tell you that I was personally threatened with being charged with a felony in 2019 for renting my property even though I had gone through the proper permitting.

The rationale being you are reducing your personal housing costs as the rented unit will be covering some of the costs. 

Your personal assets are protected with a viel, which can be pierced under certain circumstances.

(And best case it was a rental for 17 years then a primary for 3, making only 15% possibly eligible.)Personally, if you and he are both 100% sure of the facts I would first reach out to a qualified intermediary (a person who handles 1031’s).

Personally, I'd do it.

However, it is mostly geared toward a person who has a W-2 job themselves, which is not the case for me, so there are some applications that I am finding confusing. 

A great way to meet people in your local community is to attend in person meet ups.

Also, by taking a larger loan, you have funds you can invest elsewhere which helps you grow faster.
