As far as your questions:- I'm not an entity expert, and be sure you talk to one before deciding anything, but one thing I can tell you to watch out for is, well two things: 1. make sure you understand your financing options if your properties are in an LLC.

I'm not a commercial expert or commercial lender so I don't know how aggressively you can get these re-finances.

I'll help the best I can:) Just for the record, I'm not an expert.

I know some market experts that I work with (not turnkey sellers) that do that kind of analysis.

People want to know what makes you the expert.

Take notes from the experts in the forums.

I am no expert but I believe that you should immediately start saving a portion of your rental income for future maintenance, repairs and vacancies.

I'm not an expert on tax law and have never used an FHA loan so take my understanding with a grain of salt.
