Would like to be more hands off as well.

They don't communicate well, don't take responsibility for their actions, do not clean or maintain homes well, and will shaft you when it's time to leave.Other than that, it's a pretty good system.

I would assume I am the most well known investor in the Cleveland/Akron area and I've got to ask you, what specifically do you want them to do? 

@Kerry Hermann We got our start in the western Chicago suburbs as well but are now totally focussed on The Shoals.

This works well I would say 98% of the time. 

But we know that method is alive and well I had clients doing that in Detroit in the early 2000s..

Quote from @Hector Romero: Hello all, I am new to the community as well as being the lead in real estate investments.My sister and I currently hold 3 properties next to each other in Riverside County, California (we'd like to get them in an LLC but we're unsure how that may affect financing them).

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

That works well here.

I think you should be paying about 10.5%-12% on average right now, 1-2 points as well, and some lenders will not even need an appraisal.
