(although as others have said, it is difficult in states like CA, but in OR it's only $100yr and if that messes up the property P&L, that deal is too skinny to be in) You can be sued for anything, by a tenant, a visitor, a neighborhood, or a stranger.

General answer talking to a stranger on a street, i say use the FHA to buy a multifamily property, lower barrier to entry and you get that land lording experience under your belt and documented.

May sound corny but it helps in building confidence and developing a professional presentation.I never met a stranger, but what I did do in college was recorded myself in my presentations.

I dont want to send  deposit to a stranger that I have never met.

Yes, I agree it is frankly discourteous to send a stranger anything called a "colleague request" and not include any sort of personal note.

By what moral imperative are you constrained to have these worries about meeting and working with strangers and I do not?

small items that are 'questionable' in regards to wear and tear - suck it up I go by this metric - If the tenant pushes back and you end up in court, would you want to defend your itemized list proudly in front of a judge and strangers?

Sure the information was generic, but the experience of practicing with complete strangers on saying simple things changed the game.  

I'm just confused as to whether if I receive a warranty deed from the seller if I could then supply my LLC a quitclaim deed from myself for that property and when I sell it to a stranger provide them with a warranty deed or if I would be tied to providing a quitclaim deed. 

If you're asking a stranger to loan you money secured by a deed of trust your probably OK.
