I have not set up a trust--mostly because it seems like a lot of extra work and expense but mostly, I don't know the benefit of the trust in ownership of an LLC.

It takes many years of work and experience to become a well known listing agent of choice at scale (and continued good execution to maintain it).

if we choose sub contractors for each work and we manage all the work independantly then need to take insurance is that correct ? 

Maybe women as a whole arent interested in these jobs or flipping houses > On my jobs the the women work as designers for the hard surface company.. we have a few women I see working for the sheet rock company doing the fine detial mudding and patch work and well when I was in the logging business one of my loggers his sister ran the log loader and was very good swinging those logs on to the truck..

Buying 5 single family homes is likely going to be a lot of work and there are other assets that cash flow better and are more liquid.He also has the ability to 1031 his equity into passive investments (which is a common strategy for property owners who are retiring).  

Congratulations on your achievements keep up the hard work and reach out if you have any questions.

I don’t take jobs when customer only wants low bid, I have a standard of work, and I will go out of business before I do bad work.  

-Off market requires work and/or have risk.  

And what matters even more is the quality of the work and the service.

@Gerard Scranton - we have gone the partner route in similar situations in the past by giving an equity stake in exchange for cash and labor.I would find the nastiest houses in need of work and put up 50% of the combined purchase price and rehab cost and then I’d bring in a contractor partner to bring in the other 50%.
