I have seen that the 3 bedroom 3 bath duplexes provide a solid house hack option particularly if someone is willing to rent out the extra rooms in the side they live in.

These entities include: Publicly traded companies meeting specified requirements- you know those on the stock marketMany nonprofits but not all- the not for profit has to be approved, filed, and registered with IRS and the state.Certain large operating companiesOther entities that are exempt from BOI reporting include: Sole proprietorshipsUnincorporated associations such as HOA'sEstatesFamily trusts includes Revocable Living TrustsNatural persons opening accounts on their own behalf a human who uses their real nameTrusts (other than statutory trusts created by a filing with the Secretary of State or similar office)Authorized users for credit cards, your children on your VISA card I wrote 50 times to vest in Living Trusts and save the filing costs, keeping money separate, and paying for extra tax returns and attorney fees.

I'm just a little nervous and was hoping to gain a little extra insight before making a choice.

the EAT is usually a single member LLC set up by the qualified intermediary for the 1031 exchange. 

When I have "competed" against another manager for a deal, I'm usually very passive about it.

(Plus a Bette run property that may even collect more in extra rent than they PM charges.) 

Landscaping can go either way, but I usually have the tenant pay for it.

I am just looking for a few extra referrals to add to my options; that's all... 

It'll help you prevent spill over from losses of one LLC into the next one usually if you sufficiently keep them separate.
