They are taxed at their tax rate, which is often lower than the corporation’s.

The banks can be difficult to work with and I pay cash, so I don't have to worry about financing, but there's often some gotcha. 

One thing I dont like about cozy.co is that it didn't provide me with the SSN/DOB of tenants, which I would need to make sure any evictions I suffer through get on their credit report. 

I am an out of state investor and I am looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable and text friendly (I am able text very often). 

There is no sacrifice in doing #1 and not #2...the sacrifice comes when you do the opposite.We often talk about wanting more time with friends and family, or being more healthy, or more charitable, or having financial freedom, or whatever we say we want and then we make daily decisions that are completely disconnected from these goals. 

I specialize in probates and quite often the relatives have not paid anything and some heirs may not be local.

This has always been the rule.Where it came into play most often was for taxpayers subject to the AMT. 

The best kinds of tenants don't have too much raw cash, at least not that they flash around to me.  

Check Shelter Insurance, which can often beat REIGuard on pricing and can carry over to rental occupancy.

Adult only or seniors communities often will be of somewhat higher quality and much easier to manage.
