@Andrew Syrios - If you have a home that experienced a situation like that in KC, I can probably narrow down the location to a handful of Zip-Codes.

What I would do....use cardboard or construction paper to make a template that fits the contour of the tub perfectly.....then transfer that template to a plank....mark it out with a pencil etc...... make the big straight cuts as needed.

I’m trying to keep the money on hand without having to roll the whole amount into another house I don’t know if I’m reading into it wrong but I’ve read that if you are married and you sell you’re home for less than $250,000 you don’t have to pay taxes?

I have not yet seriously considered turnkey as I'd like to be a little more hands on (at the risk of taking on more trouble). 

I also have a degree in facilities management and would love to help anyone (locally) who needs a hand.

I have not yet done a deal on my own but I am looking to purchase my first property within the next couple of months.So my question is, if I am planning to purchase properties, rent them out and collect cash flow for the long term, would it be more beneficial for me to form an LLC and then purchase my first property or purchase the property as an individual then transfer the property to an LLC down the road?

He called in sick several times but finally did about 7 hours work then hands me a receipt for his new work gloves.

Based on the first hand advice I read it sounds like a potential nightmare scenario.

I looked into investing in Maryland and found the property taxes and transfer taxes too onerous to even consider taking the plunge.

A vacant unit is hands down better than any bad tennat.
