I plan to drive from houston to San Antonio tues night to be able to visit their office Wed afternoon.

I'm trying to work through what my plan will be.

My plan was to try to manage most of it on my own first.

I have 2-3 more evictions planned next week.

It would be best for you to reach out to an investor savvy CPA, there are over 20+ enlisted CPAs here in Biggerpockets assisting clients with their tax planning and strategies. 

Location is not an issue as most of them remotely assist RE clients with their tax planning and accounting. 

I suggest you listen to free podcasts on land wholesaling, build a business plan, and then work it (Wholesaling Inc is a great one).  

For estate planning purposes, we want to change the title to a revocable trust where my husband and I are the trustees. will this have a negative tax implication for 1031 purposes if we want to sell these and purchase properties prior to my husband's passing?

@Jacob Lopez, as others noted, house hacking is not really a cash flow play, in a traditional sense, since you are effectively removing 33-50% of the property from the rent roll.If you plan on living in a unit for a couple years, then holding longer as an investment, I would underwrite it as an investment.  

There's not necessarily a rush to reno immediately, just would definitely like to plan accordingly now so I am not completely caught off guard.
