You have to factor in the age of the building and the age of all CAPEX items I listed above.

My bare minimum for those 2 items is $150 per month.

We were able to a cash out refi and capture most of our money, continues to cash flow and be a great investment.

I have a little trepidation with establishing a Series LLC outside of my state, but I know that many investors use other states for a number of items, and especially asset protection. 

The things that help you stand out are (in no order and not just these items) Location, amenities of the community, size of the community (can it handle the traffic), reputation of community, how well the house is themed (or can be by you).You need to be in a highly amenitized communtiy like Championsgate, Windsor Island, Soterra and several others.

When using the fix and flip calculator where would I capture the downpayment used to obtain a mortgage to acquire the property?

@Andreas W.1031 is a federal item and you can find one located anywhere across the country.Just be mindful that PA does not recognize 1031 exchanges so you may have some state tax implications.

I suggest you check out these items and research their history, you can look up bond history pretty easily.https://www.clevelandohio.gov/... 

Apparently It made more sense to double close than to try to explain a line item like that to the seller, so it was good that the buyer had that option incorporated into the contract paperwork.MD is certainly pricey (note that county to county, local transfer tax rates are different) but definitely not the priciest.

When you go to see an attorney I would bring photos that show all of the trash and items that are piling up.
