If you ever plan on doing this later in your days, you could always do a management company and just expand on that, but I can tell you from my own perspective  that LLC – S and being W2 employee under that may limit some of your lending aspects, but it protects you around the world anywhere you go further if it comes to it, you can bankrupt your company, sell the assets and open another company the same way and you’re still protected through and through. as my wife is a high earner, it really protects her from civil suits and other things like that or anybody that ever comes to maliciously take what is yours.

@Scott Mac you've got to know where to invest in Detroit to avoid getting taken advantage of or just plain making a big mistake.Detroit investing is block-by-block, which is difficult for OOS investors to do.Zip codes are statistically too big.That's why we've spent considerable resources ranking Detroit's 183 Neighborhoods. 

I was in Little Havana last month and it seemed like every block had multiple CMF being built

Lastly, if you represent yourself, be prepared to block out several days for court appearances, no matter if the tenant shows up or not. 

More things happened than what was listed above, but I think my mind has blocked them out to protect my sanity.  

Yesterday Senate blocked further action on The Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024, H.R. 7024, which includes the extension of 100% bonus depreciation. 

Even just a box store H&R Block type of professional if you don’t already use one to help maximize your deductions and write-offs from the real estate.

I was thinking of doing a block refi on all of the homes but maybe doing 2 houses at a time is the better option now that you mention it. 

However through my research i keep coming across this term sneaky duplex where people turn there basements into a unit or block off part of there house to turn into a separate unit. my plan is to use the basement for traveling nurses because you would already have the water and power turned on for them "house is 5 minutes away from the hospital", live in the upstairs for a year and possible house hack one of the rooms.

Two policemen were shot half a block away about 10 days ago.
