When buying your 1st home/real estate investment is a real estate agent needed on your side?

Hello, I purchased a home last year and looking to buy another home soon.

The most similar scenario I encounter is folks who buy trailers for dirt cheap to rent out here. 60k entry (or whatever they are going for) then 600 a month to lease the pad/land.

You aren’t going to create them for privacy (the county tax records will make it obvious the previous owner moved them in to an LLC or trust.)You aren’t going to create them for liability because 1) you’re going to screw up and co-mingle funds piercing the corporate veil. 2) Anything that gets the property in the LLC sued is going to be your fault, so you’ll be sued as well. 3) you’re just going to buy an umbrella policy because you are 10X more likely to get sued for something you do than something the property does.

It can also be very time-consuming to learn, and it will only teach you how to buy sell.

You can buy it at your local hardware store.
