I'll be putting some money towards investing, most likely in real estate, some in retirement/stock market through index funds.

I'd recommend the following ideas:1) If you can't find great deals right now, stockpile as much cash as you can and keep it ready for when the market turns a little south (this is the second longest bull market we have ever had for the stock market, so it will go down and pull housing with it a little).2) Try different approaches.

Not sure if this is a good neighborhood to buy in now... shortly the area will have to compete with new construction. 

Can you do short term rentals or maybe airbnb?

@James Wynn I would be interested in more details of your short sale. 

Usually this feature of the 401k would be utilized when you have some personal short term financial need and can pay the loan off within few years.

Once you have a full year with no transactions for the ebay business you can start making the ebay related chart of account categories inactive to hide them which will clean up the chart of accounts.So short answer is I believe it's possible to do everything under your existing LLC, however It increases your liability and is not going to be a very clean transition on your books. 

Yet i received my deed in the mail shortly after and it said i have 1.1 acres.

I diversify my rentals between the "Short short" (30 days or less) business model and "long short/corporate rental" (30 days or more) business model so I don't like to take all my bookings through Airbnb & VRBO.

But the short answer is there likely is a way to meet you objectives while completing a 1031 exchange which also preserves your option in the future to continue to exchange real estate.
