Going the commercial route will cost you lots more in terms of insurance and financing @Michelle T.If you plan to have a portfolio lender and a portfolio of lots of little houses then an LLC will probably be required by your insurance co as you will have a commercial enterprise.

I would say that at below $1-2m of EBITDA, business tend to trade at the lower end of the 4-5x EBITDA for Enterprise Value (I would even venture to say in the 3x's).

Again, you could be spending your time building your own enterprise but instead you are assisting me with no expectation of compensation and for that I can't express enough thanks.
