//What is the rental market like in De Soto KS for renting property with a large home and pond//I am analyzing a deal on a property in De Soto KS. 20 + acres, newly renovated home, a pond, etc.Given the economy, De Soto KS location in relation to Kansas City, Lawrence, Lenexa, etc... does it seem likely that there are people who are willing to rent properties at a higher cost than something in the city?

Are you looking to source deals or for passive investment opportunities?

If it's something you want long-term it may be best to get the real deal but it's been cost effective for me to offer without the big commitment. 

As part of the deal, they are paying me to take some of the backyard.

Assuming you're getting into deals that can perform above what the market will deliver (the only reason you would do this), there is still going to be a lot of work involved.

I finally pulled the trigger on my very first deal.

cost of doing the deal. 

I have a strong background in sales and business development, with years of experience driving revenue growth, building high-performing teams, and closing deals.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

If, for example, you're looking at a larger, commercial deal with or without partners, it would make sense to have a separate LLC for that property.
