When you are analyzing this, make sure you are considering all the benefits and ways to make money (cash flow, depreciation, debt paydown and equity) to name the most common. 

This is my first time here =) I am just getting started in real estate, with the end goal of replacing and exceeding my current salaried job.

I started to really get into finance and look into alternative investments too.During my first and second years, I worked two jobs, saving every penny I could to help pay for my tuition.

Germain this is a common question and a good one :) The answer is it depends and it may not be your choice.Generally, buying through your personal name can reduce the interest rate - commercial rates on LLC mortgages are usually higher but you can research thisMost LLCs on incorporation don’t have any credit so it may be difficult to find.a lenderIf you own the property in your personal name you are exposing yourself to more risk and will want to transfer the property into LLC as soon as you canIf you own property in your personal name and transfer to LLC the lender may not allow or can call the entire loanLLC or personal you need insuranceOne solution to the above is to buy the property in your personal name and immediately transfer it to the LLC after closing, but you will need to get pre-approval from the lender before you buy the property and plan to do this since not all of them allow this.

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with zero or negative relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560, little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

I have 5 rentals (long term rentals) and my week is a typical one of a person who works in a job that has nothing to do with real estate. 

I grew up with washer and dryers outside and it's pretty common here.

I am hoping to move to Colorado after college, and my goal would be to manage my properties (with maybe some family help) along with working my full-time job.

Why do you think the vast majority of Americans have w2 jobs? 

Meaning from the Court of Common Pleas's perspective, it is as if the magistrate hearing didn't happen.
