I'd keep my primary residence and pay it off.

In a matter of 1.5 years... my parents bought a duplex from wholesalers, we accumulated an airbnb from wholesaler, finished first fix n flip from off market seller, and now wholesaling a couple deals my self.

I'm in the process of getting everything caught up for this year with hopes to hand it off in January.  2) My wife equally sucks at bookkeeping. 

Since then the company decided to overhaul (and temporarily close) their business and sold off the properties, and investors got a payout from the sale proceeds of the properties they invested.

Considering the amount of time and money we spent last year on this property, we thought it would pay off in some way...

This is an important status for people to go for since it allows you to write off losses from rental activities on your other active income.

I do off market deals in San Diego County and LA and if you get the right price you can make quite a profit on a flip.

I add 15% to the normal rent for a Air BNB tenant as they are leasing the property with no risk or skin in the game, and they are making a profit off your lease.

You're OK to carve that one off and not impact the 1031 on the rest.

This allows you to get fully immersed into the world and to start developing a solid foundation of information as you kick off your investments.
