I bought my first Investment home back in 2015 and It has been a success for the last 2 years.

To scale up to achieve my goals I thought aligning with a RE fund would be ideal. 

I would also look at Kansas City, Jacksonville, and Indianapolis.I own a turnkey company in Kansas City and we have had great success in our market.

I will also be doing a continual review on my success (in detail) with my two main marketing methods - direct mail and online marketing.      

Good credit is not necessarly mandatory to qualify for a loan however it is a clear indication of a individual with very poor money management skills likely not equipped to be a successful investor.  

We are a successful commercial self-storage operator out of Roswell, GA. 

If my credit score will take this kind of hit each time, how can I achieve this?

Luckily I’ve had and continue to have some prominent clients in the fields of advertising, toys, video games, etc. that have made me pretty successful in that world.

So if I am successful in buying first thing that would happen would be to increase rents to current values.  

Although I'm a lawyer, I'm not your lawyer, so you should seek separate legal advice if you feel you need it.The bottom line is that they are already in business together and should probably stay that way.If they were to split things up, they would have to transfer the property out of the LLC into their own names and that would cause problems and cost a lot of money.Even if they successfully split it up, neither one of them could refinance and it would be difficult to sell the property without the other one agreeing.They should either keep it in the LLC and live with it, or sell it and split the money and go their separate ways.What they are proposing would make things more complicated, not less.
