@Jon Martin people do get tripped up by this.

People spend more time deciding on a backsplash then they do screening tenants 

I've done this with my properties because I'm well known in my small town and don't want people to know what I own.LEGAL PROTECTION: By placing your assets in an LLC, you are legally separating them from your personal assets.

This results in increased crime and people leaving the city.

If a crappy area, I would not try to STR it, since you will likely be getting people who want a CHEAP place to stay.  

There are 3 people that are looking to move in. 2 of them passed background check and income verification.

Have you considered hitting them with a Stone Cold Stunner?

For years I told people the most dangerous spot for a real estate investor is 1 or 2 units.

Plenty of people just move out of their homes after 1-2 years and buy another property. 

Hit me up if you want to take a look in the Toledo area!
