I also have an investment company that has been established for 10 yrs that I’ve flipped a few properties and hold land in.**** My current issue with the lender that I recently spoke with was that I had to have experience building a SFR on my own property and have sold or refinanced and held in order to be approved for the loan.

to your point, if you save up so that you're in a strong financial position, house hack a solid duplex in a decent neighborhood, make smart decisions, and hold it indefinitely, you'll be fine.conversely, if you have $0 and somehow start out with a risky flip, or borrow $20K and spend it all on a magic mentoring program, or buy a terrible property in a neighborhood you've never been to, you may not be fine.

I stick with boring buy and hold, but in another state where the numbers do work.

I want to know is it more cost effective or easier to purchase the property alone and put it in a mortgage in our name or purchase the LLC from him that holds the property within it.

Cozy is notorious in holding your rent for over a week with the free plan.

I tend to shy away from homes over ~20 years old to buy and hold for long term renting.

I was to start assembling a team together and am looking for any recommendations of contractors that will offer a little bit more hand-holding, as I am still fairly new to this process.

Hi LaShon, I do recommend an LLC to hold your investment property(s), especially if you have significant personal assets.
