It was NOT a fast process to make the decision and be comfortable.

I worked with a CPA out of state a couple of times and it just felt like I was filling in the blanks - no different than using Turbo Tax - no advice given. 

don't keep a staff. there's a general contractor in our market that has 400 million annual revenue and 41 employees. 10 million per employee. do the math. that's columbus ohio. construction management is the key. get to know the subs, process, build clients, focus on what actually get's business not hiring when you are small. 

For example, there'll be costs for Title/Escrow, lender processing/closing fees, and even origination fees.

I did all the work myself pretty much which is why it took so long to be completed, but I saved a lot of money and learned a whole lot in the process.

I should be able to easily fill in the blanks for you.  

It's really a simple process of getting a state sales tax license and filling a business license with the city.

A clear misunderstanding of how the process works. 

A management company will be able to market the home, push the listing to all the rental sites, process applications, and have a lease for you to use. 

He has a very diligent vetting process.
