Looking forward to legal advice for LLC opening. any referrals who have experience with international investors? 

I didn't do an exhaustive search, so this location is just an example.I'm considering either Reno or Las Vegas, but Las Vegas looks like a better location for this, since it has more direct flights to other international airports, and has more visitors to generate STR income.

The Internal Rate of Return is just under 12% and cap rate and 6.52%.

Also, the state of formation is likely where internal disputes would be brought among LLC members, so if you and a partner and/or spouse live in CA, you probably want to arbitrate in CA if the two of you had a disagreement.

For colleges with a large international student base, MTR can work because parents will stay longer, but for short-term and likely for UTA, short-term would work, but also would expose you to way more occupancy.

It runs a criminal background, credit score and eviction check.

If you have a pile of crap don't expect too much from your tenants.Setting income requirements, credit score, criminal history, pets, etc. is a great way to set a standard but its not going to always weed out bad tenants unfortunately.

This has led me to search for firms specializing in the niche area of cost segregation for lower value rental properties, and what I found was firms who are using internally developed software which allows for such cost/engineering data to applied to basic parameters of a specific rental property to come up with a lite cost segregation report for lower value properties (depreciable basis >$500k).  

And many are the ones you are reading about in the news (or soon will) as they lose properties to foreclosure and wind their way through civil (and occasionally criminal) court.
