@Shawn Ziegaus For the most part, it can be broken into 2 parts, if you have the time to do it yourself OR if you are in proximity to your properties. 

I find that by living in a community with different people, I am more physically active, mentally engaged, and life is overall better.

I'm simply making more money with eXp - where I'm licensed in Maine.The big difference is that eXp is 100% in. the cloud  There are very few physical locations, and those are strictly optional. 

As far as physically, my ideal rental?

It's a good area, but has been slow to recover after the recession, possibly because of its proximity to Ferguson. 

@Gray B Moore you might consider fractional-ownership interests like DSTs to satisfy the requirements for your exchange, though these options wouldn’t really allow you to physically enjoy the property in a traditional manner as you outlined.

Much smaller house I have, but your siding in this area should cost 7-10k, being that these Lakewood houses have some difficulty with high third stories, neighbors house is usually in close proximity, making access difficult.Lastly the siding will increase the value In that area.

This I hope will allow me quit my day job and work as an owner of my own physical therapy clinics where I may franchise in order to protect myself from automation and give back to the community in ways of health and wellness, education, and chronic pain treatment. 

This culture has to have a physical address somewhere, for Amazon to drop merchandise at.We wont really know till we cross that bridge.

There's no way an agent with a video cam is going to be able to give you information you would otherwise get from physically walking the property.
