Some are for-hire independent contractors, whose services an investor could enlist directly, typically for a relatively minimal cost.

If you use an independent agent they should be able to access but if you need help shoot me a message.I'm sure there are other options for it but this works for us.

The other local branches (Independence, Lee's Summit, etc.) are better.

Establish specific objectives for wealth building, financial independence, or passive income.

While independent (and I believe independence is crucial) I've been appointed with Penn Mutual for many years and they're excellent to work with!

The PM as an independent contractor should have a general liability policy as well.

How hard would it be to move a new tenant in? Depending

I subtract that from my offer and run my numbers as:Rent (estimates from the MLS on closed rentals in the last 3-6 months; we have access).Insurance (we go to an independent broker; who happens to work for my company, so we bid everything out to dozens of insurance companies for some estimates)Taxes (we challenge them after a year of owning)Water/common chargesWe do not add PM fees as we manage all of our properties ourselves. 

By going with outside tenants, you will become financially independent.

I have CPAs for tax questions and taking care of the LLC returns, as well as for any "random" state audits of the LLC (which do happen - they claim they are random, but they are looking for LLCs not paying state unemployment taxes).That's all I have needed for over a decade of being a part of multiple different business ventures.
