Title is held by the 3 trustees.

I bring along a modest amount of real estate experience, having held a number of roles as an investor, developer, broker, and manager, having facilitated the acquisition of over 650+ properties 🏘. 

Also metal door frames may help. 

But if you've held for 20 years that mortgage is going to be next to nothing anyway.Whether you are buying a new place or evaluating your own portfolio, if you value current cash flow over leverage to allow you to buy more properties, then you shouldn't have any debt whatsoever. 

Had I held onto that house, I would have benefitted greatly from higher CA appreciation, but on the other hand, I was able to benefit from higher cashflow.

Since you may be held legally liable for anything that happens on your property, it is important that your PM not hide anything from you.

Typically there is a metal plate between concrete and raw wood to avoid the rot.

I am in Michigan and looking for a HELOC on my investment property, it is held in an LLC.
