I have a partnership, where I manage the online customer interaction. 

For most investors with a rental home that has a mortgage, you are reducing enough fee interactions that the payback will come in just a few years. 

In theory, they'd have to sue both the property manager and include your LLC (or yourself personally) to involve you, but may only be able to sue the property manager since you never had any interaction with the said contractor (especially if the contractor was paid ONLY by the property manager, NOT the LLC/owner).  

As someone said earlier, screen the person for the standard metrics and evaluate their character on your interactions with them.

People that are brash and want to make money at all costs and do not care who they have to step on or how they interact with people are ###holes and I don't even talk to them.I have clients that have lot's of money but are very cordial to work with and we have a great time doing business.If you base your business on the lowest price there will always be someone else trying to gain business on the value of being cheap.

The face-to-face interaction with the teacher and my peers was very valuable and I also made some great contacts, both RE and non-RE related, that I'll have for life.

I highly encourage that you engage in as as many conversations as you see fit and interact with as many people as possible in order to maximize this amazing resource.  

I am looking for a recommendation for a registered agent for LLC from people that have had interactions with those in Missouri.

Rental income addbacks are:-Mortgage Interest-Hazard Insurance premium-Depreciation (typicall, straight line method)-One-time extraordinary expenses-HOA fees99% of lenders out there follow the traditional Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac framework and this is how the underwriters treat income.
