Having an LLC is not impressive and probably a waste of money.

. - I'm impressed you're self managing your rentals from CA...especially a rehab.

I hired a PM to find a tenant for one of my properties which has become vacant.Their agency has a lot of good online reviews and when I interviewed them, I was impressed with their professionalism.He has just now emailed me saying he has a client wanting to buy my property for 150k.I was a bit baffled because last I checked it was worth around 450k.

thank you scott. i must say i'm pretty impressed with the level of responses i'm getting here. as a starting investor (at least in the us, i own a rental property in my country) getting into this business can seem daunting at times and such help sure helps a lot :) 

Initial impressions are key, as well as great follow-through.)Your documents, rental agreement, and property rules (These need to comply with the laws of your jurisdiction, professionally presented, and be top notch to serve both you and your tenant well.)Good Luck!

@Thomas Mundinger I'm impressed that you are willing to self-evaluate to ask if it's you, and to reach out in this forum.

I am impressed with the info given.

I'm not a flipper, and I'm not one to think I can watch 3 years of HGTV and pull it off...I'm still under the impression that ALL tv is make-believe.

Very impressive how you have it worked out!

The inspectors were impressed with his work too.
