I don’t buy properties that don’t cash flow as it’s a nightmare to end up owing $800-1000 month to own an investment property.

Our agent warned us how difficult it was to get anything done in that town.

On one of my units the property has shared electric with another unit I own.

Should I invest in my own property, saving money on land costs, or purchase another property else where?

I currently run a Taekwondo school in Stratford CT, and soon will have my Real Estate Agent license.

Have more open houses to help minimize having to pay a realtor on the selling end Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I'm not an attorney so can't explain why he didn't like that.Since I live and own in business-friendly states, I don't worry too much about which one I choose.

To me that means an account owned by a trust and that would be an unusual account in which to hold security deposits.When I had a SF property manager, they typically held the security deposits. 

I wouldn't want to do a tenant placement myself, certainly not yet unless I had a lot of properties to setup my own company for that, there seems to be a lot of potential liability there related to discrimination accusations, etc and I would prefer to not answer a bunch of questions as the owner, I would rather have someone else do that who is less attached to the property.

TOPA is neither a big deal for a buyer or seller if you are working with an agent and title company with extensive TOPA experience.
