@Jeffrey McKee law students are harder than lawyers—most lawyers realize getting to court is a losing game :)One thing that should help guide you going forward.

They explained that if something happened at one property, a separate llc for each property protects you from losing your portfolio.

The former loses money when the deal doesn't work out, the latter still gets paid. 

Of course, I'd rather be making money instead of losing money each month.

But remember you can make or lose money most anywhere.

Will you lose most deals; probably, but there’s more downside to not being honest upfront with the seller.

Don’t even know if we’d be able to walk away without losing the earnest money.

@Matt Parker you are in sticky territory here and if you do anything wrong, and the tenant pushes back, you'll lose in court.There are 4 loopholes to SB 608 on why you can terminate a tenant.

However the pro's of less cash down is your if the market turns sour you lose less while the bank bears most of the risk and it also frees you up with cash to potentially invest elsewhere.But these are just from me reading and would like to hear the professional guru's opinions of which path would you take as a newbie in investing (or buying RE in general). thank you

After accounting for stimulus checks and increased unemployment benefits, how much did they actually lose?
