The Facebook group of "flipsisters" that we were supposed to have access to for ever, got changed to only having access for a year after I had been a part for 2 years. 

As others have suggested here, I would either sell and take advantage of the 121 exclusion or wait it out and hope for rate cuts which are supposedly coming in September 

I would LOVE to see you all nervous holding your ethernet cable ready to yank it off the wall the second I say something I am not supposed to on your podcast.Admit it.

I have some ideas and some stuff I'm involved in and we can discuss and compare.For someone who supposedly doesn't know a lot, you're doing great!

I guess I could regain possession of the unit but I am the owner so it is quite ironic to spend so much to get back what you are supposed you own....I also own properties in Dallas and I have evicted a few tenant there before.

Yes, having a bank account and credit card per property works great for bookkeeping as long as the accounts are used they way they are supposed to be used (no commingling). 

If you absolutely need the money now and can use it for another investment, I suppose you could but wait if possible.

If you decide to stop doing business with them, they will supposedly return the full $500.* = They also charge 50% of one month's rent to place a tenant.

I supposed the usefulness may depend on what information you need/value as an investor?

From a bookkeeping standpoint, this makes everything a lot easier as long as each financial account is used the way it is supposed to be used (no commingling).I would just caution you to think about the functionality of that structure within your day-to-day business operations before pulling the trigger on it.Make sure you're keeping things as simple and efficient as possible.
