@Andrew Postell I recently started trying to finish the Rate/Term refinance and a property that I tried this strategy on and ran into a couple obstacles I thought I would share.I filed a mortgage on the property with me as the mortgagor and the LLC as the mortgagee, just like you talk about in this forum.

All houses right now are mortgaged through my name/social, but deeded over to real estate trusts.

So I've been looking to purchase a rental since the beginning of this year, but I've run into a couple obstacles.

@Thomas SehonRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I do recommend creating social profiles to strengthen your brand online.

While I appreciate the content and how it's presented, it's tough to fully trust what’s shared on social media.

Are you good with social media? 

In the past, once people graduated high school/college they moved out and it was socially embarrassing living with your parents.
