I have done a lot of these for my own portfolio, but am wondering if the tax implications are different if we do a cash out refinance for this partnership LLC and then have to "distribute" the funds to the members. 

Unlike the Bay Area, at least from my experience in Sacramento, i don't think the difference in down-payment from a duplex and tri-plex is that significant.

A lot of the success stories and content we’ve seen in the past came from a very different rate environment, so I’m definitely factoring that into my approach.For now, I’m planning to focus on the Jackson County/MO area, specifically around Lee’s Summit where I have some local support from family.

How is that different than the information they’re providing on the investor webinars?  

I am currently an Asset Manager for Multifamily Deals as my W-2 job and looking to buying my first deal in College Station/Bryan Area.Anyone I can connect with to pick their brain on different investing strategies? 

So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

I have 9 properties in 2 states and 3 different counties.

The differences lie in how they aggregate, update, and present the data.

Many people utilize LLCs for many different ventures because they do not want to go through the hassle of opening another LLC.
