My method is no secret, copy and past everything I wrote into a google doc, then replace every "Wilmington", with Jacksonville for example, then find every number associated to the template provided, and boom there is now an easy to read and digest format of notes taken on a specific market, and in the case of myself, I have taken this note taking strategy- refined it for Bigger Pockets readers, and continue to spit out data on the markets in this fashion. 

To me LLC almost a fashion statement, I had rental property long before LLC’s became the rage, and I will continue to have rentals after the fashion is over.

OH courts may or may not recognize outside LLCs in the same fashion, but this is a legal research question that should be conducted by someone who has experience researching on WestLaw or LexisNexis...Google research is not something I would rely on for my assets. 2)  If you live in CA, you would want to register the OH LLC as a "foreign entity" in CA, and to echo what the others have mentioned, yes, you'll then have to pay the $800 annual FTB fee. 

all of our rent collection has been the old fashioned way until recently I have tenants recommending we go digital.

Considering the explosive buying spree that took place at the end of 2021 (where investment volume reached $322.3 billion) it may seem like investment has dipped in dramatic fashion, but property markets are in a very different position than they were six months ago.

Tenants are almost shocked by how great the unit looks (relative of course, to the market there..)Cut the old pieces in a staggered fashion, so they don't all end at the same place.

The 1 year history shouldn't be a deal breaker, assuming other factors are in line and can be shown, in some fashion. 

Their check doesn't deposit in a timely fashion.2.

@Ethan Board You don’t and if they call them what’s worse is you just did this and it gives you zero asset protection since it’s not arms length transactionPlenty of posts on here about this being a waste of money when doing it in this fashion

Or, old fashioned list it high and see what happens could be in play.Figure out what makes it work for you and offer accordingly.
