Complicates life a bit, but getting great experience.

DTI is more complicated when you're talking about rentals.

.: Sounds like you know what your doing, :)Most repairs on a house are logical , things arent as complicated when you stand back and look at the problem then work backwards to the solution .

The combination of student renters and a property that was not standardly built meant it saved us from unnecessary repairs because someone couldn't find the right switch to turn on the fan etc...

I understand I'm going to need more partners on commercial to afford it but at the end of the day, will my ROI be similar to residential one.Is there considerably less maintenance on commercial properties (as a tenant will be responsible for maintaining the property, for example, a restaurant owner will be responsible if a water leak is caused by an employee in the kitchen versus a residential apartment tenant, will call me and I have to get it fixed).I hope my question is not too complicated, all opinions are welcomed.

It's much easer and safer and profitable to do things in compliance, avoid unnecessary risks, not doing screwey things to flower up a deal or just paper it up.

I realize this creates complications and could be frought with certain issues, but like you said- the team is key.

Seems a bit complicated for me at this stage of my real estate investor career.

Some estates are really complicated and go on forever.So maybe you'll hear from a successor trustee, maybe you'll hear from a lawyer, maybe you'll hear from an executor, maybe you'll hear from a public administrator.

A llc, unless you have substantial net worth is an unnecessary and complicating expense.
