In terms of Costs associated with an LLC-Roughly like $100 to file with the secretary of state in Ohio if you wanted to do it yourself-Cost for your accountant to prep a tax return at the end of the year for that LLC (depends on your accountant)-Cost of a higher interest rate with a DSCR loan -Maybe more advanced, but if you have more rentals the cost of additional bookkeeping software like having to pay for additional quick books accounts.

I have never heard of that.Maybe go in and manually block direct bookings so their software doesn't pick up on where this is coming from?

Because it is mostly cosmetic, the cost to remodel isn't horrible but you can still get the properties at a discounted rate.
