Thank you,KVBelow are my answers to some of your questions that I feel qualified enough to answer and then some of my personal thoughts on where to go from here."

Also, the transunion credit and background check is almost $50 per person.

I highly suggest as many in-person networking events as possible! 

There are legal requirements for disposing personal property left behind by a tenant.

Personal Property coverage- furniture, lawnmowers, signage, etc. 

But, you need to talk directly to the person whose name is on title. 

On more than one occasion I’ve talked with a person or two that was offering real estate coaching and I found out very quickly that either it was not what they were advertising or they was not far enough along to be coaching anyone except maybe a complete newbie or maybe it wasn’t the strategy for me.Anyway, that’s my ramble for this morning.

This is a very personal question that is difficult to answer. 

@Levi Perl Since your single-member LLC (SMLLC) is a disregarded entity, all rental income or losses are reported directly on your personal tax return rather than at the LLC level.

You must report rental income on Schedule E and can deduct rental expenses like repairs, maintenance, property taxes, mortgage interest (allocated between personal and rental use), and depreciation for the rented portion.
