Default Rentals as retirement income

Hey all-

We're looking at TV not only as a place to live, but also as a source of retirement income.

If I sell my other real estate, which is in California and not easily managed from Florida, I'll have roughly $1M to invest.

We were considering buying, say, four $250k homes and leasing them on annual leases only, and living on the income. If they would each produce $1,500/month net, that would provide enough income for us. And, doing a 1031 exchange, real estate into real estate, would allow me to defer taxes.

We're just not sure what the demand is for annual-lease property in TV. Any thoughts on this? Any alternate suggestions?

Thanks-

Dave
