Initially I would lean on a house hack.

This doesn’t mean the person you are speaking to actually represents that company.I know everyone likes the convenience of the web, and they are tired of hearing it, but this really is a business based on relationships, not online anonymity.

Are you leaning towards rentals or rehabs? 

LL should write leases to end when it is convenient for LL.  

I leaned doing business in Texas everyone surveys before closing. out in the west we rarely do that unless its acreage or some other special circumstances we simply would not have enough surveyors to keep up with resi transactions in a timely manner.. but I can see in Texas were the land use rules and no building codes or lax ones and no licenses required years ago.. that you need to do this.. you opened my eyes on that one. 

For now, I am leaning toward establishing an LLC to purchase and rent real estate.

I get that, investors get a deal and I get the convenience of selling them all at once.

Reach out to me at your convenience.

This is hilarious.You conveniently omitted property taxes ($237/mo as you stated in an early reply) as well as interest only payments on the HELOC you're using ($27,000 borrowed at 8.5% = $191.25/mo).That's $428.25/mo of expenses you just pretended aren't there. 

However,they have suffered damages more than once from bad weather, and it's not a very convenient location for non-retirees.
