I can usually get $80 - $100 pretty easily but not much more.My question is should I be willing to lower my per door cash flow goal, considering that I will have no money into these house?

I would recommend using your own agent, it won't cost you anything and it makes the process much more easily navigable for you, so why not?

Treat your normal finances right and you will then have the ability to buy investment properties easily.  

You will be able to "house hack" easily while you are here, duplexes are plentiful.

Local allows you to self manage (and potentially self maintain) which you cant easily do out of state.  

This two can easily be negatively affected by an economic recession or downturn or real estate market free fall that makes mortgage repayment difficult because of reduction in cashflow and property value. 

The cameras has armored cable that could not be cut easily especially 30 feet in the air.

@Jim Carson, I'm in the process of rearranging my corporate structure as well.My local Indy corporate attorney advised against using the series LLC option since it's brand new to our State and there is no precedent yet with them to see if they stand up in court as expected.For me, this is the way I'm leaning:Convert my S Corp to a C Corp as the holding or management company, then use LLC or Land Trust for each property or set of properties that is then all held by my Living Trust.As far as the comment above about having your CPA setup your LLC structure - I've always been a firm believer of paying the right professional for the job...I'll gladly pay more now to the attorney to setup my LLC vs. saving a few bucks to have my CPA [bean counter] do it [unless the CPA is also a real estate attorney] - just my two cents...

Recent appreciation in So Cal have easily exceeded this amount but I would not want to rely on such appreciation.  

Well both myself and my 2 partners are users of most of the Google apps so it integrates easily.
