Find a partner, find co-workers/friends/relatives you wouldn’t mind living with, find a property you can buy for less than your current rent.

I'm still relatively young (early 40s) and own 10 properties, some are multifamily, and the thought of buying another one and dealing with the headaches of managing the property management and all other operational grievances that come along with it, really makes me consider getting into some DSTs at some point.

Regarding next steps, I agree that the best way to approach this would be to have one person act as boots on the ground and the other person handle the back office related items.

You need someone to sit down and evaluate the entity from that standpoint, not just as it relates to income from the property after you got married (and Congrats on the recent wedding!)

I'm local to Stamford and always willing to talk about the market or anything relating to real estate in general, feel free to reach out.

So the only foul I see here is you throwing pot shots at this company when your issue isn't even really related to them at all.

They have made the statement that Bee Setups has no relation to Bongo Stays, and that when Bongo Stays shut down, Bee Setups acquired several of Bongo Stays assets.

LLC's separate your personal assets from your investments and offer you protection from lawsuits related to your property, they can help to establish a more professional image if you plan to expand, and they provide some flexibility on how you are taxed.There are some drawbacks, included fees and administrative work, but it's ultimately best to consider speaking with a CPA to determine the best option for you. 

If I’m sick, the business keeps running.

As I mentioned to Michael, I'm attempting to see if our returns and operations are relatively inline with the expectations of experienced STR operators.
