Do you have a pre-approval or proof of funds ready?

I could buy it now but then I would be thin on reserves and renovation funds for the one I have not closed on yet.

If you’re not willing to do this, then you may be best off investing in some kind of real estate fund concept.  

I am a district manager with a company called Build 2 rent, and i live in Cape Coral.  

I will provide more information later.The two main setups are:1- Holding company in Wyoming if I want Charging Order Protections advantages, then a Series LLC in Kansas holding my Kansas RE and another Series LLC in Missouri holding my RE in Missouri.2- Holding company in Wyoming if I want Charging Order Protections advantages, then form as many LLCs as I want inside of it, one per rental or one LLC per 2 o 3 rentals.Fees are pretty reasonable and the same as they disclosed before the appointment, on their website or youtube videos.

We're fortunate to have an above-average income and live well below our means.This summer, we’ll be moving to Detroit (PCSing in August), and we’ve saved about $120,000 to invest in addition to having funds set aside for the home we’ll purchase in Detroit.The reason I’m posting is that I’m struggling to decide how to best allocate the $120k.

I've heard there's a good chance the mortgage company won't care as long as the payments continue to be made on time but I still want to protect myself just in case.

Don't use your emergency fund. 

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self-storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

I got a quote from Ackerman today for to install a fairly basic alarm system for $700.Any suggestions on alarm companies in Atlanta.
