But by putting the properties into the business name you can avoid having the debt reported to personal credit so long as the funding lenders servicing company allows for it.

After a long search, I found the right trustworthy Mexican partner/builder which has allowed me to work on doing my own condo developments to enable to give a better deal to the buyers, including people who contacted me on BP and couldn't find something that suit their needs.

These allow you to:1.Force Appreciation: Actively increase the property’s value through strategic renovations.2.Leverage Equity: Either refinance or flip the property to build more liquidity for your next deal.If you’re interested in chatting more about strategy or need guidance, feel free to shoot me a DM.

Solid 2-4 unit properties are so scarce in these areas (~21 sales in last 12 mo between the 2), the market simply doesn't allow a buyer with a low downpayment to enjoy any "income" out of the gate.

@Melissa Odom - it's a pretty wild west territory with DSCRs, some allow LLC, some allow trusts, some require LLC, some not.

I could have started with a duplex or triplex, living in one unit while renting out the others, which would have allowed me to leverage the power of compounding and real estate appreciation.

Major drawback was the starter plan did not allow you to customize a lease.Avail had very basic functionality and was missing features such as income verification.They all require a fee for ACH and Credit/Debit, but Inaggo and TurboTenant allow for offline payments such as Venmo, PayPal, and Zelle. 

always allow the market to tell you how much a home is worth instead of going with what you think a house is worth Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
