You should consult an attorney or CPA for your specific situation.ANONYMITY: When you create the LLC, your name is recorded on the documents and published on the Secretary of State's website for all to see.

Quote from @Chris Lo: Which platforms/websites do landlords use to find the rent rate, how long the rental properties have been on the market, and all the details about other rental properties?

I think Cozy will also work I just prefer the look and feel of the Simplifyem website better.

It will take you to that municipalities website. 

For example college rentals generate some of the highest ROI of properties I come across in New Jersey but it depends on the school and location of property.

You can look on websites like https://www.corporatehousingbyowner.com/search/United-States... and https://www.furnishedfinder.com to see what similar houses are rented for.

Generating equity is often second to that.

Would that be, for example, if the PM says, "I manage a duplex for John Smith in Turlock," then I call John as a reference, ask John a few questions, and then ask John the address of his duplex so I can later look it up on the county website and verify if he is the owner?

If your properties are generating solid cash flow or have appreciated significantly, you might be following a “smart leverage” strategy, à la Grant Cardone.

Know this (found on every inspection website):  You should be concerned about cracks in your home if they are large, appear suddenly, or are located in certain areas.
