Hey @Mario Morales I assume you're planning to purchase the new property under your personal name rather than through an LLC?

It works I agree - the key is finding the right person to do it.

I am here to create a business strategy that protects personal and business investments and mitigates risk,  procure a coach or mentor, and set up tax strategies to create long-term wealth for myself and my family. 

I'm a passive investor and these properties are in a different state than I reside in so I'm not there in person often. 

These loans are based on a property’s rental income rather than your personal income, making it easier to qualify as you expand your portfolio.Networking and Mentorship:You’re already off to a great start by reaching out here!

I'm 18 years old and eager to seize all the opportunity life sends my way.

I have no idea who I should reach out to for help, and I just do not understand how this person no longer responds to emails or returns phone calls.I hope someone can provide some guidance. 

I typically don't comment on other's businesses unless I know from personal experience.
