.- That management company has vetted possible tenants through their professional screening process and have selected the most qualified tenant for the property.- The management company offers a hands-off approach including coordinating and managing repairs, getting the property rent ready after a move out and placing a tenant from a pool of applicants that may be waiting for a property to be ready.

I'm curious as what y'all consider to be the minimum criteria for approving a tenant, assuming you don't have access to professional tools.

Most professionals will recommend a separate LLC for every $1 million in assets, but I don't think that's necessary.

After seeing the power of financing and understanding how loans can help make real estate deals like this happen, I knew I wanted to be a part of it professionally.

Readers should seek professional advice.

I actually ended up going through a big career change, and attended a 6-month bootcamp to learn Software Development after 7 years cooking professionally in fine-dining kitchens. 

@John Zhang If your wife qualifies for Real Estate Professional Status (REPS) and materially participates in managing rental properties, there is no limit on the amount of rental losses, including depreciation, that can offset your W-2 income.

Just like the sales team has been taught to get you to do when they are selling you this course. 

What I love most about what I do is building genuine connections with people—whether it’s homeowners, investors, or fellow professionals.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
