My name is Jessica McCain, I a novice in realestate.

If you have you Louisiana LLC, you figure out what North Carolina's foreign entity registration is and follow it.I did this using a CO LLC buying property in IA.

I have been moderately active with rentals in a small town in Iowa for the last 5 years.

I would also suggest applying for a permit for the existing part of the house, call it "Phase I" - "as if you were not doing the addition", that way you can start demolition right away.

Ia also have a small farm in Brazil and I studied how farmers survive and it involves making Money on a month by month basis, because your Bills come up on a 30 Day Cycle.

I know an experienced multifamily investor who only invests in small-town markets in places like Iowa and Oklahoma.

And I do think there is large value to relationships, and knowing your investors when you have a project.I'm new to the board, and a property developer in KS/MO/IA.  

There has to be a good reason why these things aren't done, maybe realtors wouldn't take the time to do them, but it would be great if I (as the investor/buyer) would receive one.

I disagree as we were never provided a key to that lock, and whether it was by accident, mechanical failure or otherwise we never had a means to unlock that door.I understand the argument if we had lost a key or we're told no key existed on move in (although in latter case should have been rectified if known problem.But I, as a landlord, would not hold my tenants responsible for something they were never given.What say you?
