Despite all that I continue to invest in Ottawa because that's where I have my team, the cap rate's ok, and I like the market dynamics.

So even if you pick a state with stronger protections like WY or NV, the cause of action arose in the state where the tenant fell, so likely that the court where the accident happened would have jurisdiction.

@Alyssa Dyer What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

My first few properties would ideally need light cosmetic rehab as I'm not looking to take on large rehab projects while I'm still building my team. 

Have the RE attorney on your team prepare the docs.

This young designer and their team also did stagging for SFH sales and had an inventory of furniture that they could "sell" to us at a significant discount.

I'd like to see if anyone has recommendations on a good team of agents (<$100k purchase price), property managers, and/or a turnkey company. 

Over the past couple of months, I have been building my team, learning, and analyzing deals. 

I'd says things like; "You are fixated on square footage determining if a house is comparable but you are comparing single story houses to my two story and single stories cost more to build and typically sell for more than two stories of equal square footage" and would get told "if you don't like it go to the review board".What's the bet that next year when we try to use comps from early 2019 when the market has been soft they won't accept them if the market has gotten stronger towards year end.

However, if you feel like you do have some extra time on your hands, you are handy yourself and/or you have some good connections and team members that can do the work for you, doing the BRRRR is a good way to go.
