Deal with it.Correct me where I'm wrong but Novations can be executed by either a Power of Attorney being given to the investor or by an investor just doing the paperwork, both being done after they secure their interest with an option contract (unless there's some other creative thing I haven't heard about yet).

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

My lender is suggesting me to buy property under my name and then transfer it to LLC later as there are not many financing options available for LLC.

I don’t see where a rental would make sense, so I’m trying to look at other options to cover the monthly payments until the market goes back up.  

There's so many options but they all do the same thing (more or less).

My guess solely looking at your numbers is that it's an older/distressed property which means you have to account for more costs in capex. 2nd thought being it's not in the best of neighborhood then you'd have to take into consideration lower quality tenants/ neighbors and maybe increase expected vacancy and late payments.

An assistant can do most everything that you need done and they work directly for you rather than a property management company that has several clients and you’re just one of them.Also, again, depending on the location of your properties, have you considered doing a lease with the option to buy?  

While you likely won’t owe taxes due to the loss, filing is still required since the rental property is located in Missouri.Kansas (KS): As a Kansas resident, report the rental loss on your KS state return (KS-40) since Kansas taxes your worldwide income, including out-of-state rental activity.Tax Impact: The rental loss reduces your federal taxable income and may lower your overall state tax liability.

Have been exploring other options as well.

In my experience tenants on the lower end of rent tend to cause more damage than higher price tenants.
