None were a match for me personally and many were not a strategy I wanted or too speculative (such as opportunistic strategy which is the riskiest strategy or investing in tertiary markets which also tend to be the first to go belly up when there is trouble etc).You probably actually want to look at your operating agreement to see what rights you have to books and records, etc. 

The tax benefits refer to the tax deductions from mortgage interest and property tax.The returns mainly rely on appreciation, and the cash flow only improves in the last few years, also depending on securing the 5% refinance rate.I've learned a lot from this forum, but as I start to operate on my own, I'm still not completely confident.

They are pure GARBGE. 3 months after they issued my premium I still get calls from their clowns to sign something and that insurance is not bound....I dont believe they are operating a insurance company, likely a scam artist to be honest  Sounds like this is an issue with their call center/in-house agency? 

Currently, I am self managing all the operations.

Your LLC needs more than 4 pages operating agreement.They are recommended by many but not with me.

They can handle day-to-day operations, tenant issues, and maintenance requests.2.

The biggest thing is vetting the operator as they ultimately drive the returns.

Hi BiggerPockets community,I’m new to real estate investing and currently running a remote operation to help connect investors with distressed homeowners and foreclosed properties across various markets.

My job is to thoroughly vet the operator, analyze the market and analyze the deal - then I send the wire and my job is done. 

With insurance rates going up, best to find areas with the lowest operating cost.
