I'm 51, been a corporate drone for most of my career, but made a leap of faith about two years ago and launched a small but growing tent and event rental business as a side gig.

I'm skilled in financial analysis, project management, corporate real estate contracts, and data analysis (SQL).

Mitch - A Good Strategy however; Can an ENTITY (your corporation) be designated as AIF - Attorney in Fact for INDIVIDUAL borrowers who's loan is being paid off?

Have a master entity, a corporation, that manages a series LLC and one other holding LLC.

I have read LLC's are not the best to buy real estate with it being difficult to get loans from banks due the limited liability. should I put these properties under my name, or should create some sort of corporation/llc to put my properties under. 

I would love to hear the experience you had with your duplex and to find out the lease structure for leasing to a corporation that serves as guarantor (if that is how you did it.)

Joined the community in the hopes of networking with like minded folks.A wee bit burnt out from the corporate 9-5 hustle so exploring Real Estate as a means of building wealth and some freedom for me and the family.Hope to connect with some of you soon

You can skiptrace LLC’s on open corporate and the direct owner on truepeoplesearch and make a list that way too. 

So, investing on the side is the way to go - it certainly was for me and it took me 8 years before I was confident that I can quit my corporate job.

is there a particular formula that takes all manner of factors, (employment growth, corporation development news, barrier to entry, rental rates, wage growth, etc) into account and spits out an "invest in city X" answer?
