I would suggest if you have put your mind to it, enhance your skill set and learn the rules of the road and try small.

You'll want to have the right property management company set up.

Hi Keenan,I'd be happy to set-up a time to speak if you're interested in learning more about our company - Chroma Property Management.

(Talk about the OPPOSITE of what entrpreneurship is...)The most successful people I know in this business are those who realize - they DON'T have to do it alone.I was the person who had been burned in a few really bad partnerships (case in point, my first 5 deals), and then grinded my way to 10, then 30, then 80 deals a year with just me and only one other person....but I didn't realize how quickly I could grow, how much more I could learn and scale once I set that aside and trusted people.

. $2,500-$2,700 in rent but have a $1,900 mortgage (including current property taxes) plus $100 for insurance, plus a 10% chance of no one renting and another 10% set aside for repairs.After all that I'm in a range of breaking even or making $200 a month with this as a rental.

I would 100% start attending some local meetups or builder groups.I have always found my partners pretty organically and given your skill set & background I think you bring a ton of value.Investing closer to home and having boots on the ground is always easier to get started.

The LLC has to be willing to sell the property to you (or rather the entity that we set up to do the reverse exchange).

Other than setting up a domestic and foreign LLC due to properties being in different states, transferring the deeds, and opening business bank accounts (and funding), what else needs to be done?
