My tenant (single professional) has occupied the home for a full 2 years now.

Be a sponge and take notes.Third, consider joining a local real estate investment club in your area to network with other real estate investors and professionals locally.Finally, bring your deals here so the more experienced investors can help you get your deals done right.Happy to help in any way I can.

I think the bigger the property the more professional you need to manage it, this could be challenging if you cant figure that out. 

Do your due diligence or ask a property or legal professional for help. 13.

I was just presented with a VERY similar situation @Matt Tobler (grandma is going into assisted living, family is looking to sell -- 60,000 purchase est. value 100,000)I have the cash for the purchase, great credit and income for the subsequent refinance, a team in place to help with a fix and flip exit strategy and also a rental portfolio that is professionally managed for a hold strategy. 

Essentially, want to get advice from a professional on asset protection (LLC?)

Seeing as I am a young investor, how do I present myself in a professional manner with investing contacts/questions so that I will be taken seriously?

Would like to discuss with a contractor, I know most are busy.Secondly, I need a professional tree trimmer for a multitude of trees to be trimmed around another property. 

I’m also planning on using a property management company, these tenants don’t seem to be trained very well and I’d like to have some professionals come in and get them in order.

A turnkey real estate opportunity will generally water down your return somewhat, but that cost is a trade-off for leveraging the expertise of a professional real estate asset manager.
