There are ways to structure this, but its not easy and takes administrative work.

@Theresa Harris I’m not against it I just know from selling several houses what a pain it is.

One thing to keep in mind is the "fractured" nature of Western PA in general.

In my opinion buying one of these franchisees would get you running out of the gate with all of the systems and processes in place saving you the time and pain in setting this up on your own.

The growing pains between 1 unit and 300 units will be a lot!

Also, by the time I leave I’ll be done with college, and I’ll have a degree in Business Administration and Accounting.

My 2 brothers and I were not interested in taking ownership of the home because even though he owned it outright in 2015 he ended up with another mortgage on the home when he passed.Two years later, we are still getting notices from the mortgage company saying they are owed "finder's fees" and other administrative charges, totaling $6k.

I've recently been considering to be named the Administrator of my mothers estate (God Bless her soul). 

The Airbnb resolution center is a real pain to deal with.

I work as Defense Subcontract Administrator by day, and RE enthusiast at night and weekends.
