I'm active down here and might be able to find you a home depending on what you're looking for.

Your getting a 'passive' rate of return for an investment you may have to be active in and has a higher risk than other 'passive note investments'.

As far as 1031- check out @Dave Foster, he's very active in the forum and really knows his stuff.

I'm currently serving active duty in the military. 

Hey @Chao Cheng Gao ,Properties being for sale on Zillow is a good thing, that means there is activity happening in that area and folks are selling properties.

LOTS of active investors, but lots of area's they don't mess w/ that stll have great deals.Good luck, and feel free to reach out.

I’m active duty military and motivated to get started.

Cover all your bases up front with policies on overnight guests (what is an occasional guest vs a rogue tenant), illegal activities (can you evict over underage drinking, marijuana-what evidence is needed?).

That way you'll slowly move from active into income creation from the passive side - better tax advantages and longer term wealth creation.

If you have questions, you can probably call their office anonymously to ask.A local rental property manager told me that they are actively enforcing this law.
