You might talk with a real estate/estate attorney and see if it's possible to open a probate, have a Personal Representative appointed and obtain an order from the court authorizing the sale of the property by the PR with the proceeds being deposited into the registry of the court for later distribution when all the heirs are identified. 

@Chris Harwood, You will need to purchase real estate with your 1031. 

I'm Doug from Brooklyn, NY, passionate about real estate investing for a few years now.

Hi BP,I'm a first time investor from the Bay Area, California. 

Hi Everyone,I'm just starting out and looking at small MFH properties but will be investing in the Midwest where I grew up, though I live in California.

Can I get some advice on military friendly lenders with low down payment for purchasing rental property without using the VA loan or in general, how to navigate this to start my rental property real estate journey?

Find a lender who understands your long term real estate goals and understands that rental income can help knock down your DTI to qualify for more loans and acquire more properties. 

We are building an ADU in California and he was supposed to be done by end of April.

I closed on a nice house in a B to B+ neighborhood in Ontario, CA.

They are the lifeblood of your property, like all investment real estate.
