Suggestions like driving by the houses weekly are silly, such trips serve no legitimate business purpose. 

I am open to hear any suggestion or advice to make better investment decisions and get more tax benefits like setting up an LLC .

I suggest pegging a date, somewhere in Feb..

I'm just suggesting you be well informed:I loved reading Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad Poor Dad"... it was extremely informative and eye opening... albeit told in a bit of a crazy way.  

c) how can I get better at marketing (in general) & marketing for Sellers any suggestions would be helpful.The current changes in CL doesn't really bother me to much, I just want to know if I'm waiting my time?

For out-of-state investors, I suggest considering a C-class turnkey single-family home.

Likewise, I would suggest to connect with some other investors locally. 

I would suggest the book Turnkey Revolution.

Thank you BP family for your support, sentiments, and suggestions. 

If the numbers aren't there yet, I'd suggest focus on growing your income, look into house hacking as previously suggested, or consider partnering with other investors who can qualify for the loans.
