In fact you can have the end buyer pay for title policy (often called pass-thru).

As of last year i was up to 7 rentals, but after some advice from others i sold off the 2 that were still negative cash flow purchased prior to the last housing crash when they finally broke even in value to wash my hands of them. 

I simply discussed our primary pool of high net worth investors, including myself, and also discussed our prior larger deals that we've closed this year so they know we are closers!

We just closed on our 15th property, I think it is better than all the prior ones combined! 

Complicating matters worse, the unit is occupied--so it's looking like I'll have to ask the seller to have that unit vacant prior to closing if I don't want to put myself at risk.  

As a result, you really should get an umbrella policy in addition to the LLC to properly protect you. 

I am 100% confident you will run in to this.The easiest way to avoid these arguments is to get a full appraisal done prior to discussing an offer with them.Summary:1. get an appraisal if selling to the tenants or at the very least a full CMA with on site visit- not a drive by2. sell as soon as you can if you can get your money out of it you want3. be prepared for lower offers from tenantsDoes all this make sense?

@Isaac BlackMost banks have internal policies that sales going short for less than what's owed have to be listed on the market with an agent.

However, you could also get an umbrella insurance policy instead of opening an LLC and moving the financing (if you have any) to the LLC.

I would also have 7% or more of capital expenditures like a roof, paint, new HVAC, repaving the parking lot, upgrading facilities, etc depending on the amount of differed maintenance from the prior owner.
