Should I close my LLC and Quit-Claim Deed the property back into my name and just do an Umbella insurance policy?  

. $950 income for the entire month seems quite low and probably justifies your concern.

It also appears that you are making quite a few assumptions as to how I operate my business. 

You can influence your investment's performance through property improvements, rent adjustments, and savvy management... something you can't quite do with an annuity tied to obscure indexes.An Individual Retirement Account (IRA), particularly a Self-Directed IRA, can be used to invest in real estate and employ leverage to potentially enhance returns.

There's actually quite a few friends I do not recommend REI to, or when I tell them what I've done and see photos they get a lot less excited very quickly... 

Hi Josh, I moved to Columbus a few years ago (from Portland, Oregon which was super expensive) to become a full time real estate investor, and ever since, I've completed quite a lot of BRRRRs, flips, and own a successful rental portfolio here in Columbus Ohio.

I am not sure if anyone ever cared to pull together the data but I am quite confident in saying a study that compared licensed to unlicensed contractors would tell the story of unlicensed contractors seeking greater deposits in relation to total project costs than those with all proper licenses.

I'm in California and I have quite a few section 8 tenants.

Hey Jeff, this definitely looks like something worth inspecting as a 2.5x is quite large.

The rents are on the lower side, but I am also not looking to raise them significantly as the best thing about these properties IMO are the very long-term tenants.When I do the math, I'd have a lower monthly payment and pay less interest over time even at that premium price versus a lower price and lower rates in the next year or so, but I likely wouldn't be able to sell any of the properties at that value for quite a while.Is there anything I should be thinking about that I am not?
