Hate to commit to a short term lease..... turnover is a PITA....but if the $$ is worth it, I may consider it...PRORent is paid by insurance company, not individual....more reliabke I would hopeHigher rent and deposit....not sure how much yetCONGuaranteed turnover in 6 months or so..I'm in CA, so doing placement in Dec isn't a huge deal but not the best timeTurnover cost $$...so it may not pencil out as a big $$ gainScreening...... guess I still do the background, but the other criteria is really on the insurance CoSomeone that knows they are short term in the unit are less likely to take care of itInsurance companies can be a PITA to deal with.....

In time your expenses will increase considerably on individual doors and eat up your cash flow.I would be looking to sell now while the SFH market is still high.

Rentals are in high demand, but more for the $4-500 unit. 

Demand termination and full justification for the cost or you will sue them in Small Claims for damages.In the meantime, find a new Property Manager. 

I do know that neither would put the LLC on the mortgage because they needed the individual to be responsible if things go bad.   

Mostly I'm hearing that I, as an individual, have to be on the title at closing but then I can have it recorded the same day to my LLC.I'm guessing the best thing for me to do is be upfront with any potential lender/broker on what my plans are.  

Not specifically the properties or types, but the cities or states themselves.Do you have states in mind that you look into individually and then begin to determine potential cities? 

other wise i will have to go one by one and search each individual apn 

At least not accurately.Supply/demand for GCs in the Bay Area heavily favors the GCs.

I would also demand to see all units that will show you what ought to be done.
