Every single state in the US has a LLC Liability shield in it.

It is a single family home on a property that is zoned commercial.

If this is a large condo complex you could do it as 5 vanilla Fannie 30yf loans; if this is a smaller complex or you prefer a single blanket loan, it'll  be a commercial financing scenario... adjustable, 20-25 year term, etc.

Our plans: buy and hold single family, duplex, triplex and fourplex properties for long term rental income.

The house was originally a duplex, but the city enforces a rule that a duplex that sits vacant for 12+ months in our zoning district, then it will be a non-conforming use and thus must be converted to single-family. 

How significant is the age of a home in your decision to invest? At what age is it a “No Go”?

But if you have a bunch of money burning a whole in your pocket and you just want to hit the easy button, I think it probably would be worth it to join that training program.

My opinion is ultimately the PM company should be held liable to make sure this vendor gets paid.The PM agreement states: (21) hire contractors to repair, maintain, redecorate, or alter the Property provided that Broker does not expend more than $ for any single repair, maintenance item, redecoration, or alteration without Owner’s consent; Leasing & Management Agreement concerning: (TAR-2201) 6-1-10 Initialed for Identification by: Broker/Associate and Owner , Page 3 of 11 (22) hire contractors to make emergency repairs to the Property without regard to the expense limitation in Paragraph 4A(21) that Broker determines are necessary to protect the Property or the health or safety of an ordinary tenant;3) Should/Could the vendor file a mechanics lien at this point?

The single bowl sink is more popular now.

Might make sense to invest in single families.
