There are exceptions, but not many.My policies are explained to landlords when they hire us.

With the exception of financials. 

Or, should i do the same exact concept except eliminate the holding company, and simply have 3 independent LLC's, all with me as the member, and the property management company handle all of the transactions and pay the property holding LLCs a fee each month? 

You can start looking now and assume that returns you find on current properties for sale will be similar to what they are now with a few exceptions. 

Ends up a few times we are looking at some of the same leads, except he paid top dollar for his.

I require a $1,000 security deposit, no exceptions and I let them know they will be paying all utilities, mowing the lawn, keeping up the landscaping and cleaning the gutter. 

I didn't even realize at the time what lessons I was going to learn in the future my father was an accountant and an exceptional bookkeeper and a math genius to be honest.

Speaking of junk, doing my research tonight saw a 1/4 acre lot for sale.....except that it is 25' wide and 407' long. 

I had no idea what to expect except for generous coaching by Joe.

You have to send thousands to fish out the exceptions.
