I do have some knowledge of real estate through extensive podcast listening and book reading but I know there is so much more to know.

So happy you're here.. what's your must-have feature in a potential property right now?

Its how come I am so entrenched in funding in the mid west till this day.. 

Assuming your debt is SUPER cheap and only costs you 12% you’ll save $22,800 TAX FREE  So the combination is saving $60k at 12% (or more) is $7,200/yr and $130k in the bank at only 4.5% is another $5,850/yr  so you’re over $13k GUARANTEED instead of a chance to make $7,200 before taxes  

Glad you're building your business while still active duty, that's a powerful move! 

I need advice on the probability of clearing the title and what it will take to do so.

I am looking to add a 2nd investment property to my portfolio but I have no cash to do so.

Even after renting, you should check the market every month or so to keep an eye on prices, vacancy rates, etc.

Also, why do you think so many people are advised to get an LLC when starting in RE investing? 

In one of my duplex units, one girl wants to stay and renew her lease but with two new people as the current other two are moving out.She had 2 people willing, but one of them was a smoker so I had to say no.
