Under the "From:" at top of the notice, do I list the LLC, myself the ultimate owner, or the manager, or all 3? 

If you're comfortable losing part or all of your investment you don't need title insurance.

What taxes am I subject to, and which state would it be owed to, CA, OH, Fed, and/or all? 

Why not just get a new job that a) pays more and b) would pay for some or all of you education?

Like I said, it’s common that 75% of the appraised value, after renovations, will reimburse the borrower close or all of the amount they’ve invested in the property (assuming they’ve bought and renovated the property in cash).

@Allan Ringler the best advice I can give is to invest for cashflow and look at appreciation as the icing on the cake as the value of a home isnt static over time the property will appreciate and depreciate based on comparable sales (if you're looking at SFR or small multis) Investing in towns like Montclair sounds great but in practice its hard to cashflow without a huge downpayment or all cash purchase.

No more payments until progress is made and significant work completed or all work completed.

Group some or all together and get a loan.

Direct quote from the Department of Community Affairs "Truth in Renting Guide,""No landlord of residential rental properties, except those in owner occupiedtwo- or three-family dwellings, motels, or hotels, transient, or seasonal units, mayfail to renew any lease, regardless of whether it is written or oral, unless they havegood cause not to renew the lease"NJ is very tenant friendly.
