I recommend being anonymous.In some cases if you have a PM, let them advertise it as their own.If you have an llc then the lease and payments go to that.While I do introduce myself to tenants, I don't advertise I'm the owner publicly.

Here are thoughts on building strong vendor relationships:1.Timely Payments: Pay vendors promptly upon completion of work to maintain goodwill and encourage continued collaboration.2.Fair Pricing: Negotiate competitive rates without undercutting the value of their services.

Maybe you can use your duplex as collateral seeing as you don’t have a big down payment?

I’m not from the US and currently live in Europe most of the time.I’ve found some apartments that could work well for my needs—I plan to rent them out on Airbnb and reserve a few nights for myself when I travel there for work.My question is: apart from the purchase price (I’ve seen listings on Zillow averaging around $150k in areas like downtown Dallas, Old East, and Plano), what other costs should I expect—both during the acquisition and in monthly payments?

In return he will place the down payment, closing costs and IO payments during the HML.If the property is initially purchased by one LLC (Ours) and there is an active loan on the property, is it possible to register half of the property under the name of the investor's LLC as part of our model?

I'm basically looking for input in the following:Option 1: Buy a couple of properties and split the money from the 1031 exchange for the down payments.
