Are the home prices so low that investors can afford multiple properties at a time?

I have long wondered if transferrring title to an LLC while keeping the loan in the borrower's name personally could open the door to a piercing the corporate veil situation.

I recommend being more specific, consider the number of comparable rentals, not just the total number of rentals.If your rental is $2000/month and you see rentals at $3000/month with long time on market, that is interesting but not as directly relevant to your situation.

Don't let the situation stop or delay income from coming in.

It is not a never/always situation. 

It all depends on your situation.

Here is our situation: we downsized about 2.5 years ago to a house that we had planned to rent out, we have about 36k in a HELOC that we can use right now to either buy another house to move into or put into an investment property.

Does anyone have experience dealing with a similar situation? 

Although this might seem like a super exciting way to “get out” of your current situation, please understand that REI is a very competitive and difficult business.

I will explain: What you can do in your situation given the #'s is a little game I like to play of Segregation of Monies.
