Even so, in true Rich Dad fashion I'd like to ask 'How Can I?'

Good old fashioned face-to-face business will never go away.

Most states have a requirement of a notice and opportunity to cure of some form or fashion.

I am just not sure how to attract out of state investors in any fashion.

Of course, these are suggestions and opinions only - I am, in no way, form or fashion a real estate professional - just a fellow investor in Columbus. 

What I'm really curious about now though, is whether or not moving the properties into an LLC in this fashion would reduce my personal number of financed properties when applying for additional loans, mostly with respect to the fannie mae reserve requirements."

In addition, being able to get properties sold in an expedient and highest value fashion. 

I have some goals that I'm trying to reach and I don't kindness doing it with of fashioned sweat equity and streetsmarts.

If you come in as a buyer with no agent and offer on a property that has a listing agent, the agent will probably try to get a higher fee by offering to represent/assist you in some fashion.

Our next step is to find out if vacant or not (our realtor seems to think is occupied), offer a small $ incentive to said tenants to move out in a nice and tidy fashion as to avoid damage to the property (if not, start the eviction process), get utilities changed in our name, get title insurance (via taxtitleservices) /clear the title, then work on the rehab :).
