Or should my tenants make all payments and contract with the LLC A that holds the property and then I subsequently make draws out of there.  2-If i were to raise money under the traditional GP/LP and the GP would be a newly created LLC that I wholly own and I also wanted an equity interest using one of the LPs, should the LP interest be owned by a parent company (Parent Entity LLC) or is it individually myself? 

To control my time on the process, I usually post it on craigslist and don't meet people individually. 

I would prefer the fixed rate Interest rates will go up How does the difference in payment affect your cash flow?

Also I find asking friends and family to recommend people sometimes can lead to great contractors that you can build a relationship with.Thanks Brian,  yes while they cost more than handyman (who I prefer but my building won't allow because most are unlicensed), it seems they still cost much less than GC's. 

We help the foreigner (individual or company) to buy the property, then we renovate (I have two interior designers/project managers in house), then we rent to other foreigners fixed to hard currency (mostly USD but sometimes EUR), then we manage the property.

There is absolutely no difference with the M1PR form between LLC's and individual owners. 

Thanks @Bobby Nilsen. i am looking to buy and hold. preferably rental turn key properties, i guess i should start looking outside bay area market. sacramento or surrounding towns.

but instead prefer to say, “How can I?”

The one side is listed for sale individually for $660k, and I found this posting on Loopnet: http://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1550-1552-Perry-St-...I'm not really considering attempting to purchase it, but from an academic and market understanding viewpoint, I have to ask: Even with the crazy valuations and sales prices, is it worth this much? 

We will be self-financed, developing property that is zoned "by-right" for the intended use, using public water/individual septic tanks, constructing DOT spec roadways, installing concrete sidewalks and offering high-speed cable TV and internet service.
