@Greg StrunakA good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

If it's a fixer upper you would account for the rehab and purchase price then compare against the ARV.

We also have a bank account at a smaller Chicago community bank, but there technology isn't as good to be honest.I think @Jonathan Greene's main point is don't step over dollars to pick up pennies. 

When so many renters stopped paying rent during COVID, companies like SureVestor stopped taking new accounts because they were facing a significant number of claimes.I personally don't see it as a good solution.

Now I need to find a real estate agent(I am "interviewing" a couple now), an accountant to speak to and of Course a lender.

So we create a partnership agreement and a new LLC and he funds the LLC account with 50k.

This is a very common way for people to investing using their retirement accounts.

The national organizations can have a lot of money backing them from Alumni and it would be a very long term lease. 

I changed my major from Accounting to Real Estate back in 2018 when I was attending Glendale Community College.

Account holders can't take any write-offs personally for investments made in the 401k.
