I'd research creative purchase methods.Seller financing, sub2, master lease optioms.

You can also search NARPM.org for the RMP (Residential Management Professional) and MPM (Master Property Manager) certified.Paul

If you now have changed residency, then apply the series LLC for each properties under one master LLC.If you don't want to change residency, bear the burden of doing your taxation for each LLCs, claim federal tax credits for each payment to CA Franchise Board, then do or complete your Schedule C in your 1040.

Agents (sorry agents) just muck up negotiating a good deal especially if you offer seller financing or buying with a master lease,,, which is where the excellent deals are found re deal structure.  

Learning and adapting over time will become the greatest skills to master.

Real Estate has always been an interest of mind, and after completing my masters in business, I realized I don't really want to be working a corporate job forever.
