Two very distinct things

This is what we mostly do, and from the smallest property to the largest, we have done very well for ourselves and everyone just seems so unbelieving when we tell them how they cash flow.

Now I have added my largest monthly transactions (my mortgage and student loan amounts) to that minimum and my account reads "keep above $4,000". 

The state has three distinct personalities (mountains, piedmont, and ocean), which limits the risk of having all of your eggs in one basket.

This separation helps in maintaining clear financial records and simplifies tax reporting and financial management.Setting up an escrow account specifically for rental income within your LLC can offer several benefits:Financial Clarity: It separates rent payments from other operational expenses, making it easier to track income and expenses related to the rental property.Legal and Compliance: Helps in demonstrating that rental income is kept distinct from personal or other business funds, which can be important for legal and tax compliance purposes.Tenant Transparency: It provides transparency to tenants and other stakeholders regarding where rental payments are deposited and how they are managed.While it may not be a legal requirement in all cases, maintaining an escrow account specifically for rental income is a prudent practice that many experienced investors and landlords follow.

I was one of the largest HML in the space prior to 08 I did about 2,000 of these from 02 to 08 melt down  LOL..

The largest residential REIA group in the area is DIG  (Diversified Real Estate Investor Group | Real Estate Education in Bucks County, PA (digonline.org)) - I would go there to investigate the meeting schedules and locations as they have many opportunities to network and connect.

These are folks recommended by a few realtors and the largest property managers in the area.

But it does have a distinct odor & I would assume taste.
