(opinion bonus) Is it worth the extra $2,000-2500 to hire two attorneys in two states to set up these LLCs/OAs versus utilizing some services I see where it can be set up for about $200 each if you add in EIN/OA work and maybe $125/year for registered agent in that state?

I have been for several years looking at real estate as a way to generate passive free cash flow and hopefully find a process where I can pour my bonus money each year into new deals.

In fact it's a bonus for the landlord.

Bonus: my sister is house hacking a triplex near Lake of the Isles, and I can start with neighborhoods where I already have basic local knowledge. 

I would consider lowering the price or offering some bonuses like 50% off the second month's rent to make your property stand out from the crowd.

You don't need to use it all but the maximum amount available is a bonus.

You can try owner financing which can produce some very generous deals.

Using your other numbers, running like a top with a 35% exp ratio, fully occupied, and valued using a generous 6 cap gives a $1.625M sale price.
