Start at $250k, but margins are tight here so need breathing room.

I do not know how often information in the system is updated, however, I think in our investment world, constant due diligence has to done as religiously as breathing.

Do I sit and just let it cash flow while I catch my breath?

Take a few deep breaths, everything is OK.Mike

What a breath of fresh air to find people who see that Real Estate is not a zero sum game.

Network and build your surroundings with people who breathe, eat and sleep real estate.

Take a breath, think things over and post a few if/then questions here on BP for comment.

MTM is good if you don't feel comfortable with your skills, but 12month leases give you more breathing room.  

Now to answer your questions.1) Go find a real estate lawyer that deals in just real estate (search BP), and ask them about LLCs, and Trusts. 2) This was more of a statement and not a question, but I'll get back to this one at the end.3) Keep saving it because of what you said in #2 ^.Please slow down, and take a deep breath.
