Transferring a 1031 exchange property into an LLC shortly after purchase typically won’t trigger immediate tax consequences for your wife if the LLC is a disregarded entity, as you file jointly.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Consider smaller multi-family properties and network with local investors.

@Edward Segaar With just one property just about any CPA can help you.

Kris,Hey I do a ton of investing on Indy and have a lot of connections if your looking to expand and Network. 

Can I ask why you are looking for a turnkey company vs working with an investor friendly realtor who has a network for you.

@Justin BradburyTo kick off your path in real estate investing, you need education, networking, setting goals, analyzing deals, and starting small.

Establishing a relationship with a few of them locally or nationally [if you have a network] would be extremely beneficial.

We will be speed networking. 

Looking back, I would have started to network, get a proper mentor in the field I enjoy and prioritized investing in rental properties before buying my primary home.

@Richard NguyenI just set up my first SDIRA a month or so ago, so I haven't had enough time to speak too much about experience, but the company I'm using (recommended by my CPA) doesn't charge AUM type fees.
