That main advantage is having access to the Multiple List System (MLS).

With an LLC properly set up for multiple income property purchases, you actually don't have these concerns to deal with.Here is the quote from j Martin I was referring to earlier.

They never caught up or made any payments unless I wrote multiple letters.

Same thing here, upper and mid-range properties are getting multiple contracts, on nice ones.

You'll make multiple price reductions, but still end up with a lower price than if you just priced it correctly from the beginning.A lease/option is a glorified rental.

I am an agent and also an investor, whenever I put the finished product on the market I always disclose that I am an agent, if the house is priced right and if you did a good job on the rehab you do not need to worry about them trying to negotiate, you will probably end with a multiple offers anyway

I like to never turn anyone away unless they have deal-breakers:Certain pets, number of tenants, too little income, multiple evictions etc.

Now, you can look at multiple pictures without leaving your desk.I like to go look at 10-15 houses, one after the other.

I couldn't believe it either myself at first, but after speaking with multiple people there (including people up the chain) who all told me the same thing, I had no choice but to believe it.I was told very clearly, that no tenant in my county is allowed to pay any amount towards rent.

I served with several people who used their time in the military and their travels to invest in multiple markets, adding some diversity to their portfolio of properties...this is one thing you can consider if you are able to handle not being close to the properties all the time.I am not sure what the market is like there in Charleston, but if it is good that could present a new starting point for you.
