Personally I am thinking 1c.

I personally like to do the texture patching because I am very good at it, but it is a hassle, and I feel like I should be able to charge them for it.

Just keep in mind that there are further steps you'll want to keep to minimize the possibility that your entity is ignored for this kind of personal liability (say, if you were the person who didn't properly clear snow, or if your finances and the LLC's are comingled).And I agree with @Chris Seveney, insurance may provide adequate protection based on what's available to you.

I had another person speak highly of New Western.

Personally, I doubt its authenticity, but that's the direct information I was provided with from Alexander Prock, as of one hour ago.

Bonus points if you have worked with them and have personal experience.The property is in South Carolina, if that matters. 

The seller purchased the property to do a favor for someone and the person died.

If @Drew Sygit doesn't have a local person for you, I have CFO clients in KC, MO that have used this firm: https://propertyvaluationservices.net/services/protest-taxes...

Hi Ven, I personally consider properties that at least cash flow with full occupancy. 

My wife and I plan to purchase a few properties ourselves, but with the lead generation strategies I’ll be implementing, I expect to come across more deals than we can personally handle.That’s where you come in!
