Hi Everyone,I was told purchases through the LLC are best using paydex to prevent personal credit/financing being involved due to liability and risk.

If it's not preventing you from living yours, let it go.

“in an effort to prevent our possible future tenants from over committing to a long term financial liability.

While I have good cleaning people, numerous handi-persons and licensed contractors, their availability is not  24/7/365 I have to pinch-hit on guest issues and repair problems when the support staff is unavailable.We often find problems, broken, stained, damaged & missing items, during turnovers that have to be dealt with quickly.

As in my case, working as a full service Property Manager, I'd imagine that would instill more confidence that a building will be taken care of, units will be leased, preventative maintenance will be done, etc.

What the fools didn't realize that the greedy managers of those Senior Living Residences would prevent millions of seniors who are financially unable and unprepared to afford the small condo-sized unit residences + vehemently UNWILLING to move into such residences instead preferring to remain in their beloved homes where they lovingly raised & cared for their spouse & children and where they know every single INCH of their current home!

I get that not all circumstances can be prevented, however, there has to be a way to find those not intent on defrauding whether you are the borrower or the one providing the funds...from the wife.

What has been preventing buyers from approaching listing agents like you said?

And in the end didn't make me money and the loans I had on them actually prevented me from getting additional loans on other better deals.Anyway, here are the specifics:1) purchased 7/1997 @ $80k, $500 down payment, cashflow appx $150/mth as long as there were no major repairs or maintenance items, great % returns but very little $ returns.Sold 5/2016 @$67k, after about $7k rehabwas about $250/mth cash flow at time of saleOh, and it took many months to sell, therefore costing me additional holding costs with no cash flow2)  purchased 9/1998 @ $71k, Similar and same area as #1 - $500 down payment, cashflow appx $150/mth Sold 4/2016 @$72k,after about $9k rehabwas about $250/mth cash flow at time of saleand also took many months to sellFor fun, I just looked up their zillow as of today and 1 recently resold for $85kNow, today, there are a lot more resources to easily research market areas, etc, so I now do more research to find markets with more demand and growth potential. 

Some are easier inspections than others but some turn into larger projects (this can be prevented with better screening in leasing but we inherit bad tenants or poorly ran previous property manager problems often).
