Most professionals will recommend a separate LLC for every $1 million in assets, but I don't think that's necessary.

I strongly recommend getting involved with your local REI meetup groups so you can work out your pitch with help from other landlords.I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way without tone or facial expressions behind it. 

Hey @Kevin Connauton, I recommend reaching out to @Matt Solis when you get a chance.

I'd recommend staying within 10-15% of the median priced home because that's where the most demand will be not only for renters but owner occupants as well. 

I recommend getting a few quotes and choosing one that is right for your financing strategy. if you are trying to get fix and flip money there is a wide disparity in rates and charges.

Quote from @Patrick Drury: @Charles MastenIf you are just jumping into the Columbus market I recommend areas like Hilltop, Linden, Eastmoor/ Whitehall, and Franklinton.

Always recommend doing a soft-pull especially since not sure exactly when you'd find a property but you can get qualified and get some estimates.  

I would recommend looking for local FB investor groups, most areas have them!

But I recommend you study it much more extensively before diving in. 

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
