But there is a way around this problem.The first step is to get your financing in your personal name then use a land trust to execute any transfers into your LLC or Series LLC asset-holding company.

If I worked within 60 miles of where I lived I would be forced to take on staff position and cut my income in half.  

REIPRO's 10 executable steps are pretty solid.

I suggest learning more about real estate investing in general, defining your primary investment strategy, and then learning how to properly execute it.Have you listened to the podcasts available here?

I hired a cleaning staff from Turnoverbnb and a maintenance staff from Homee/Thumbtack.

The inspector might have been a third party inspector hired by the municipality, if the municipality does not have their own qualified inspector on staff.

I was uneducated and wasn't executing against a plan.

The attorney/title company is the intermediary between the parties once the contract is executed.

I understand that I could have handled this whole situation better and will certainly learn from this but from my perspective, I communicated what would be done, have executed on my promise that the renovations would be done prior to the date the tenants stated they would be moving back into the property by and will now be offering a concession for the time they had "unlivable" space. 

It is a good deal and may push me over the edge into full time RE investing, i just need to make sure it is executed correctly.
