I’m going to lend  to a few people I know with LLC ‘s  on some mortgages and receive interest , I am not putting myself out to public lending just some commercial loans as LLC single member pass through  , do I have to pay local taxes in Florida , I have no brick and mortar , no employees , just LLC in Florida and live in Texas , there is no work involved I just receive interest .

In addition, you're getting close to owning it across two tax years and actually owning it for more than one calendar year.   

I’m eager to connect with seasoned investors to explore how I can assist in identifying and securing great investment opportunities for them.While I’m committed to providing value to my clients and partners, I’m also here to learn from those with more experience.

Even though the rate is lower the equity usually allows for the cash out and without hurting the cash flow and overall NOI.The 3 plex would more than likely be your best option with the Condo coming in 2nd place depending on when you closed.

does having a contract with a listing agent prevent you from buying properties ... directly from owners?

Hi Austin,I would recommend you consult a Broker that specializes in buying and selling profitable businesses.From my understanding balance sheet is key in the due diligence process.

I love to learn and love to teach so if anyone needs help in this area I have you covered.  

Thanks again for the encouragement and tips!

Highly discourage anyone to deal with these guys

the seller has to be OK with monthly payments.
