But at the end of the day, the only real KPI that matters is actually buying something, getting it under contract.

Unfortunately, it doesn't really matter because a quick biz search will show me as the manager, and, even though my registered agent address should be the one to show up on county, most of the time they are still putting my home address :(   This might actually be something that is happening at title and I may need to address it there.

The values they have and the way they treat people (you) matters over the years, even more than the investment typically.
