The odds of you being sued for something larger than your homeowner's insurance would cover is astronomically low and not worth bothering about.As you grow, I would recommend 1-2 LLCs to protect your anonymity and separate your investments from you personally.

And I've had astronomical equity and cash returns on my cash invested, but mostly in equity and cash-out.

If you get paid on the 12th with late fees, figure out what that late fee from an annual percentage rate is for those 12 days your money was tied up, you'll find it could be astronomical.

I didn't feel it would be worth it to put money into the house, but I also felt there was too much risk to tear down the house and build 3 spec homes there- didn't want a long term project on this and honestly not many people are building specs around here right now as there isn't much money in them and permit fees are astronomical. 

So, that wasn't a great option as the stress I would be under with no control would have been astronomical.  

Housing is astronomical, but the 75 degree weather year round is hard to beat.

Astronomically high and impossible to achieve. 

Those returns look astronomical now, but even back then they were incomprehensible to me... 10%+ CoC returns in the Bay Area!

I want to use legal pad type paper but 1) I'm not sure how that feeds into the printer and 2) the cost has to be astronomical.

The amount of paperwork required and oversight would be astronomical and the returns would be lower than 75,000 because of brokerage operational costs.
