Am i really liable for this payment?

If you decide not to proceed with the investigation because of their current situation, that’s your call, but I don’t see how you’d trust them in your house anymore.

In Detroit Area, I consider East English Village, Bagley, Detroit University, to buy first house turn key around 150-200k, than after I gain some experience(~6 month) with just renting, go to the next level of complexity and do BRRRR there with people who I can trust after first deal. 

To maximize the number of transactions you’re involved in you will need to:Be Top of Mind when they think about moving - which requires consistent reminders.Be seen as an Expert – which requires a consistent message and Evidence of Success storiesGain their Trust – which requires communicating integritySo, start out by listing everyone you know in an Excel spreadsheet.

( I'm also getting advised to put them in land trusts on top of the LLC's now $$$ to avoid issues with my loan companies & having them in LLC 'sI feel EVERYWHERE you turn you hear never have rentals in your own name  put them in an LLC In retrospect , I am wondering why I would not have been petter off to keep them ALL in my personal name with 1 giant 5 million dollar umbrella policy for liability  ........

Shareholders must be individuals, certain trusts or estates.

I get frustrated because most people a) don't stick with this and try to learn it... trust me its easier than first year college physics... but it will take you a few times to get it and after networking with real people doing this or b) they say its seems risky and listen to their lazy/ignorant CPA who by the way has been stuck in they same occupation for 20-30 years... why would you want to take financial advice from someone who is not financially free. 

(the pricing is awful with only 10% down however). the advantage of calling it an investment property is you can use potential income from the property to help offset the mortgage payment to qualify.
