@Doug Danoff you're right that it'll probably attract a well informed buyer, and may sell faster than a similar home at the same price.

We recommend Missouri for LLC entities that do not have geographic nexus as MO is faster, less expensive, and easier to maintain than AZ, NM & WY.  

If you still need something faster you may have to pay for a consultation from a sight like thumbtack and see if the contractors who show up do off hour work.

My idea is that since my tenants are helping build that pot of equity, I should contribute to it some also so it can build bigger faster.

I'd love to get some perspective on the cost seg from @Yonah Weiss and @Daniel Hyman...Again, if you're talking about cost seg from the standpoint of people tweeking various useful life metrics on their properties to depreciate faster, no, I don't do that. 

And since I didn’t have to wait for other people to give me an answer, I actually moved ahead much faster than other members on the forum who need to be spoon fed the simplest topics of real estate that ca be taught to you with a few clicks on your keyboard.

It seems they check for visual, electrical, moisture, mold and gas.If it really is that simple than soft inspections can be done much cheaper and faster and more often by a trusted but non - certified joint venture partner.While I'm in the area I can do a demographic, a title, and a infrastructure forecast search.

Sounds like freeing up your husband's time is a priority in order to move faster.

You have to figure out how to ask the right questions, and then the answers come faster than you can read.We're in Dallas.

I also want to to start investing with my brother and father we are about to close on our first deal. we figured between the 3 of us we can save up for down payments faster and spread the risk as well.
