It's my business, my passion, and I guess my identity :)

Was talking to someone who has been in the Real Estate business for a long time.

Pay your expenses for each property out of the respective LLC' account; ideally these should be business accounts. 

This isn't to say you can't implement your flipping business part-time; however, it'll not be easy.

I think MTR tenants could be ok with this and it really depends on your business and how you plan to mitigate risk.We collect rent through our property management system Hostfully.

Don't get discouraged when business is slow, and things don't pan out for the first few years.

Hopefully that means they are so busy/good that they don’t need your business.

It is often looked at as an unscrupulous way of conducting business or whatever.

We value you as a client and hope to continue to earn your business.

remember your first home is not your forever home, it's your first rental so it doesn't need to be everything you want.look for homes where the bones are good, but cosmetically needs love. don't by pre 1960 if you can help it. you'll end up just having to replace all the guts like plumbing and electrical at some point. it's inevitable. look in areas where the path of growth is headed, but might not be currently. think 5 years out. look for resources like your local chamber of commerce to see what businesses are coming in and where. your city planning office should also be on your call list as they can help show where most permits are being pulled for development. follow the money. go to local investing meetups. crowdsource local knowledge and form meaningful relationships. those who've gone before you typically will help out and help you avoid the mistakes they've already made. onward.
