@Alecia Loveless is correct--tenants need access 24/7 to their electric service panel, water and heat, assuming those are individual utilities for each unit.

We network with other fix & flippers teaching them how to properly structure a seller financed note so that it has value on the secondary market, we then buy a partial from them to take out most, if not all, of their cost basis so they can recapitalize and go do another deal. 

You do not need a separate LLC for each property or a series LLC!

If you’re set on Florida, focus on areas just outside the main city that are still growing—you’ll find better deals there.

Here's why:The Multi-State Chess Game:• Client had properties in 3 states• Each state has different deadlines to assess taxes• Federal changes trigger automatic state assessments• Timing the response saved $45K in state taxes🏠 Real Estate Investor Pro Tip:States can't assess back taxes if their statute of limitations expires before federal changes finalize.

@Malcolm Brown it is great that you are thinking of the money to fund the deals you are going to get started with but understanding what a deal is, I think, should be the starting point.
