We are wondering if we could ask the BP community for ideas and advice on securing purchase, rehab, and misc funds.We were thinking of establishing an LLC, but I think we'll postpone that until we have some working capital to avoid additional credit issues.I believe we both have 750+ credit scores, modest 401k/403bs, and modest home equity.

As you get rolling and establish more credibility, you can attract more investors who may be interested in what you are doing.

It’s actually better once you get established.

It really depends on your definition of "dirty".I would keep the tenant initially and simply non renew at the end of their lease if the "dirt" is a issue in regards to whether it is damaging the unit.Once you get established improving your tenant base is fairly simple and a normal process in investing in rentals.

Syndication is something I would ultimately want to get into, but I need to establish credibility as an investor first.

I highly recommend calling the county offices and talking with them about what you want to do and what they require permits for - establish that relationship now and also, hopefully, relieve some anxiety.

One company owns everything and does nothing (this is your SLLC a/k/a “asset holding company”) and a completely separate company handles all of your operations (this is a traditional LLC a/k/a “operating company”) For the operating company which serves as your face to the world and through which you do all your business, you establish a Traditional LLC to carry out the operations of your investments.
