I am 33 years old and know that the money will be worth a lot more in tax free accounts in retirement.I have w-2 income1099 income (building side business for self directed roth 401k)I currently own no IRAs only a roth account.

My plan is to use the LLC to acquire properties and to be the employer for the property manager when I actually acquire some walls and a roof besides my own personal home.

Unless I'm missing something here, it sounds like just renting it out personally is the best option. 

The Person is wanting to sell me their home for the amount of Equity they have built in it right now. approx. 20KThe Seller has agreed to Let me Lease to own and sublet the home and continue to run it as I see fit. ( i am going to keep it as a AirBnb)Is there a way transfer me onto the deed and then refinance the house out of the VA Loan and into my name?

We have the funds to infuse the money into a reno, not a full rehab.

Cleveland has a lot of good in-person real estate investor meetups.

Personally, I own 137 doors and am happy to weigh in!

Other peoples money / credit / competencies.  

Would anything happen if I just collected the money to pay the mortgage with no real book keeping?

Don't underestimate how much money you could spend when you're trying to get an airbnb ready. making it unique is very important, and it's very easy to overspend!
