Sure- Idaho has state laws outlawing rent controls.

Most investors will also take into consideration risk, time invested, control over the asset, the ability to do a cash-out refinance, and other factors.

It’s flexible and can help you fund deals quickly.Lease Options: Similar to “rent-to-own,” you control a property with minimal upfront costs and can potentially get a cut of the appreciation if you decide to buy it later.Lines of Credit: If you already own a property with equity, a HELOC or business line of credit can give you accessible funds for down payments or renovation costs.House Hacking: This might sound basic, but if you haven’t tried it, it can be a fast track to building up rental income and experience without a ton of cash down.

I never buy condos for this exact reason, having someone else control my investment.

Yes, there are things that are out of your control, but my personal POV is the whole "I need an LLC" is a little overblown.  

The only overages I will pay are when things pop up outside of anyone's control.

You have to understand your rights and maintain control of the situation. 

If your property has a history of termite damage, you may be wondering whether an annual pest control service is worth the investment.

This is bogus if buyer and seller are independent parties (if the parties are associated then I understand setting true value) as there is usually a reason for the discount purchase (risk items like unpermitted work, crazy low rents in rent controlled area, hoarder, heavy need of rehab, etc).  

They're not investors so the market prices and FED rates control them.
