Until I wanted to make sure I took the measures to prevent our pipes from freezing/bursting.  

I would also like to borrow in the entity name to prevent me from having multiple mortgages on my personal credit, which I've been dealing with for years.

I did some research on the City of Monroe and was pleased to see that there are only 12 apartment complexes in the entire city, I knew that meant these apartments would always be in high demand and I knew that construction cost would prevent any new competition from entering the market.

"professionally done" improvements (which doesn't prevent one from hiring a bad worker..). 

You can also have them schedule/complete preventative maintenance asks such as smoke detector and A/C drain line cleanings.

The compete hypocrisy, lack of self-awareness, and utter gall is astounding, I know.

However, I would like to prevent making some of my previous mistakes on my next purchase.

And Texas is a landlord friendly state, I just had an eviction suit on one of my units and the judge offered me to join an eviction prevention program, if tenant qualified I would get paid, I said yes. 

Obviously, the time and transaction costs of doing one house at a time prevents us from scaling. 

Is there an eviction moratorium in your state that's preventing you from taking action?
