Its your money but I would drive the areas to get a feel for whats around what you are buying . 

In most cases your better off buying with "All Cash" and then you can use a "Delayed financing" program to get up to 80% cash back LTC loan to cost.

I’m now buying a fourth property under a newly formed LLC.Should I place the first three properties that I bought in this new LLC?

In a fast moving market, where multiple offers are presented there is no time for getting verbal buy in. but if a property has been sitting, to me, there’s no reason not to make sure that you are in the same universe before submitting a formal offer. 

I recommend Sullivan County New York . for that price , you can buy an apartment building with a dozen doors or seven single-family homes

Aside from offering this as a benefit to outstanding tenant prospects.So, you think a GOOD tenant will break a lease and accept a judgement against them that may follow them as a lien, gaining interest all along, and nixing their hopes of buying a home for years unless eventually paid off?

Only buy stuff, even for your room, that you plan on leaving behind when you buy your next home.

I started looking into real estate as a way to financial independence around that time and was offered to buy my first property by a family member who was looking to leave the investment world.

I am doing this because this is not the only property I intend to buy so I thought I should start off with an LLC now.

Is it better to wait 'til it's sold, talk about the experience, reflect on lessons learned, and hopefully celebrate our profit margin, or is it better to simply be posting something, frequently, no matter the tone?
