In terms of capital efficiency, I always advise people to start with a house hack (to leverage low down payments), but you're in a unique situation where you can live at home and minimize cost of living already.

Lastly, something unique to your property or area to make your house stand out.

I am in a unique position because the investments will really only work if certain tracts of land were acquired and family wants to sell but nothing I’ve mentioned has any listing agreement yet, so all off-market word of mouth information. 

There are many CPA's that can do a fine job, but make sure that the perspective CPA has a deep understanding of the unique issues and structures related to real estate owners.

But conventional or private lenders don't allow payments to transfer from person to another with the exception of some unique circumstances (Death, Divorce, transferring to a family member or when a Living Trust is at large).

If this were a sports team, or a combat platoon, would you want anyone with you that did not agree with and support you?

Looking for some advice on a rather unique situation - I have a buyer looking to purchase a property they fell in love with for $1.75M using a 1031 from a $2.4M property, however the seller is unwilling to accept any contingencies; I also have another investor with ample funds; if my investor was willing to purchase the $1.75M property and turn around to sell the property to my buyer (for a premium)Assuming highest capital gains bracket, in state of TN (I believe only 1% local Capital Gains tax for <1 yr); what sort of resale price would I need to aim for for my investor to net, say $100k for his troubles?

If you walked up to Michael Jordan and said, "I want to be learn sports" he would walk away.

Love hearing your design take on each of these unique houses.

You should give them a buzz to see if they can offer you a unique solution.
