My client management skills transfer from another industry, but I admit I am “newish” to knowing what pitfalls that I have exposed myself to in the current transaction.1st - I negotiated with the Tenant to pay their entire 1year lease up front.

We are actually legally transferring them into a new LLC.

It depends on which bank you're using in some cases and as to what they specifically might be able to do with online options or you- some banks have Zelle for free transfers, but have little hang-ups like daily limits of $750. 

Get an investor - maybe a family member or friend who can invest money for the repairs for an ownership percentage.4. 

A few days later, I cancelled all 5 LLC's because I was told by an experienced real estate broker that when properties are in an LLC and you pass away the properties cannot be transferred to heirs until after the properties are appraised and after the heirs pay capital gains taxes because the properties are owned by a corporation and they are not your personal properties.

I used Fairway Independent Mortgage Corp to setup my mortgages but they don't service the loans so they will transfer your mortgage to a partner bank for servicing.

Certainly there is conflict of interest say if the realtor has an ownership stake in that company, but outside of that, at least for me it makes no difference who the inspector is!

And just use the stocks as a reserve.Or a third option is transfer my traditional ira into a self directed ira and use that money.

(Unless it was an unforeseen circumstance - Medical, death etc).FHA only requires 3.5% down and in most cases if you do not already have 3.5% saved you may want to re-think home ownership. 

I have a year left at my current unit before I transfer next summer.
