@Tim Jones also interested in tracking vs recession - following both national GDP growth and unemployment growth numbers. 

For some reason though, landlords (they are usually huge corporations like Federal Realty) do not ever drop their rents to get the spaces leased.

Has anyone worked with any lenders in Virginia (or nationally) that will allow for this?

Also, any advice on a nation wide (or Cincinnati, OH based) property management company?

Does this still protect you from piercing the corporate veil? 

With the CARES ACT passed and in full effect our national deficit is looking to hit 30 Trillion Dollars in the near future!

Also worth noting that you should talk to a tax pro and attorney- a corporation may not be the best option especially if it's a rental property 

He cannot even get to a judge until June, and then the courts will be so backed up, it could take months to get his tenants evicted.Also, my local news reported that 1 in 5 market-rate apartments are missing rents right now, and nationally it's 1 in 3.

I am looking for an attorney who can handle and negotiate business contracts and real estate finance and transaction contracts. Prefer northern California location

They have national systems but not much data on local level activity.Example you could buy a course on flipping houses for general info and steps but that course isn't going to tell you the nuances of flipping successfully in your local market.
