My interest in RE investing began after I first read ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ by Robert Kiyosaki.

Theres houses are designed to be cool and flashy but not practical and actually poorly designed and usually poorly constructed (because of the extremely fast time frame).

I opened 3 of these between me and my wife and transfer my HELOC to those cards.Yes, it dinged my credit score pretty hard (went from Excellent to Poor in a like a week LOL). but for the last 15 months.

Even with your secret weapon, make sure money isnt your controlling decision maker.

It was one the best decision we have made.

In lieu of the LLC I'll be carrying the highest amount of liability I can get on the landlord policy, and I'll be adding a multi-million dollar umbrella policy.But even if I do set up LLC's, I'm still going to carry a multi-million dollar umbrella because  owners of LLC's can still be sued pesonally if their decisions resulted in a serious injury/death (such as the failure to not remove snow as stated above, or not to fix that faulty furnace that was emitting CO into the house, or some other form of negligence).

If rents are in a normal distribution (bell curve) like they should be expected to be then half of the units will be below the average and the other half will be above, you need more information before making a decision.
