I would not get advice on this from people here also realize a LLC in California has some really hefty fees per year so something to consider 

@Chris Seveney, right on! 

Hi Jon, Have you lined up the financing yet? 

hopefully something that can be set up online!

That said, I am looking for feedback on average rent prices I can get in that area.

If I see a property on the MLS and I want to offer seller financing (or use creative financing strategies to fund the deal), do listing agents quickly disregard these offers?

I have managed properties from small multi's to large communities on and off for over 30 years.
