I believe we have covered most of the needs in this post, but I was becoming unsure about an LLC.From a multi-person investment point of view, is an LLC still the best way to go?

Not sure if that caused the problem.My guys say the grip strip goes down much faster then the allure click-lock flooring and they prefer it for installation, they said they were "chasing gaps around" installing the click-lock and the lips on the click lock were super brittle.  

Weather that's for swapping numbers to meeting in person for coffee.

Would prefer to use our own Title Company.

Since I'm a complete novice, I'm looking for SFH or small MF, preferably turn key with good cash flow to get my feet wet (also open to light renovations). 

We spoke with a lawyer who advised forming an LLC to purchase the home to protect our personal assets.

Will these folks prefer to buy suburban or rural homes, or will they want to rent and eventually buy within the city?

Unfortunately due to personal reasons, I was not able to attend the event.

Buy the property in your personal name and get an umbrella insurance policy for protection.

Whenever a person is ready to sell, a thorough cleaning that gets in the nook and crannies is needed.
