@Justin Smith wouldn't do it.Why is he willing to sell you this SPECIFIC rental and not another?

I am not too certain on which specific strategies I would like to learn more about.

Narrowing down the options will probably come down to comps and city/neighborhood specifics; things like permits.Any good suggestions for finding out how long permits are taking in certain areas?

Pre '2010', maybe just maybe it will lean heavier on the fundamental mechanics than specific processes. 

If you have any specific questions, I am here to assist.

You should consult an attorney or CPA for your specific situation.ANONYMITY: When you create the LLC, your name is recorded on the documents and published on the Secretary of State's website for all to see.

It's hard to give any recommendations without any specific questions/real numbers.

Happy to share lessons learned from out of state managing/investing if you have specific questions. 

I don't mean to be negative and obviously, you are going to do what you want to do, but to put it in perspective, I bought one of my 1st properties in 1990 (at a peak), and sold at a significant loss in 1997, due to specific circumstances.

@Kevin Waymire I have bought and sold 5,300 units.What specifically are you wanting to know?
