They could have pipes clogged by cement, AC that does not operate, or any other number of issues that can be hidden with utilities turned off.

So I am partial but you should buy from a wholesaler who has a turnkey operation.

I believe that to address this area; one would need to operationally define "motivated seller."

I would just decide an order of operations and let the other properties sit.Maybe give the new contractor 2 jobs and if he does good, give him the others.

It (the LLC) is a business and if I need to foreclose I don't have to observe a boat load of new regulations (new state statutes) that may severly complicate the foreclosure process.

The setup fee should go almost all to an attorney to draft the operating agreement that is specialized for SDIRA LLCs.

Market CAP Rates will vary a bit from region to region for sure, but a good return on investment is sort of set.GOI is Gross Operating Income.

You act like we are doing something unethical here but I can tell you that we operate above board.
