I am a Florida attorney and I would advise a Florida client that an LLC is very valuable.

I have experience with many facets of residential construction and property preservation.I am looking to break into the Real Estate market by purchasing single or multi-family homes to improve and then rent them out or sell them.I've downloaded several Bigger Pockets podcast episodes and listen to them while working on client projects and in my home gym. 

I have had clients purchase in 29palms, riverside, palm desert, Bakersfield.

This post does not create an attorney-client or CPA-client relationship. 

Go to the REI meetings and ask who is the best 'investor friendly' Realtor and ask if they are taking on new clients.  

The client wanted to meet the Cities requirements.

We've had some clients going for both duplexes and single-family homes down there. 

I've had a couple of clients use him and they were pleased.

It’ll be approximately a 6.5% cap for me after accounting for expenses.I just helped a client buy a 4 unit 7 cap (After expenses) in Riverside for $659,000. 

I usually recommend that out of state investors do not take on large projects until they are confident with their teams, but I have plenty of CA clients who have purchased moderately distressed homes and put a $15k remodel in.
