I don’t have any debt besides my mortgage fortunately or unfortunately however you look at it, and I’m not opposed to using my extra funds to buy down my mortgage but I’m afraid it won’t lower my DTI quite enough.

My new bookkeeper initially thought the multiple checking accounts was weird but now she has come around to seeing how easy it is to get detailed reports and information about each individual property this way as opposed to having one operating account for all properties.

We find that our investors prefer to see deal specific details as opposed to a long presentation talking about the company, strategy, etc.   

The only thing a tenant does it prove the rent you can collect as opposed to a proforma of suggested rent.

It merely is includes in the offer now as opposed to being listed on the MLS. 

These are quite literally opposing areas in nearly every facet.  

Yes, getting sued is a risk factor and I've been involved with frivolous lawsuits which are not fun, but in my opinion you'd be in a much better spot owning a property in your personal name that let's you keep an extra 10-20% of the purchase price in your pocket as emergency funds, as opposed to buying the loan under an LLC that requires every last penny you might have to make the higher down payment, then you have to operate on a shoestring.

Taking legal action against another party necessarily involves questions of law and can result detrimental legal impacts on him if he files a lawsuit without proper grounds to do so, or where the opposing party may have counter-claims against him.

As opposed to fixer SFRs, you can figure out who a lot of potential buyers are, and assign the contract during escrow. 

@Travis TimmonsI appreciate the opposing viewpoint and the suggestion to look into Wes Moss.
