Luckily for me most of the main horizontal lines are in the ceiling of the basement unit so I am gonna go ahead and change all of them and I feel confident it’ll be a good decision.

More people in the mix means more opinions, which can slow decision-making or create conflicts if you're not aligned.

Hands down the best decision of my investing career. 

Some states also require an annual license fee to own and operate an LLC so that could also cause a potential for increased costs there as well.I would consult with a real estate attorney to see if an LLC makes sense from a legal standpoint and advise your accountant as to your decision so the appropriate tax filings can be made. 

Ultimately just need to look at everything before making a decision.

For books, I'd recommend "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki, which is a great introduction to understanding wealth-building through real estate.

Left a message with StateFarm to get back with me yesterday, but guessing since they're intending to cancel me on not living there full time, they'll stick with their decision.

I work 3rd shift and usually turn my phone off when I sleep during the day and this morning he FINALLY came to the realization that I want him to just make decisions about everything if I’m not available.

Additionally, you may find that the pressure of the hard money loan will cause you to go faster and make poor decisions, or life could happen, and you could be delayed in completing the rehab.  

I had to use the ole Rich Dad Poor Dad mindset, "its not I can't afford it but HOW can I afford it."
