No issues.If the seller's property isn't free and clear, use a Sub-To and obtain title.You can have issues having a lease-option with repairs or rehab required as you'd need the owner's consent and willingness to work with you, a lease doesn't give you owner's rights to encumber a property by contractors or material suppliers, at least cleanly nor might you be able to obtain permits and insurance coverage may be more difficult.....so get title.Stay out of jail and don't get creative in financing without expert, (non-guru) advise.

To find a good property manager go to IREM.org search for ARM certified property managers.

Thanks for making yourself available as a strong expert on the topic

I am not an expert on Louisville or Northern KY, but I am sure those markets are doing great too.  

I'm no expert on how to fix things but I'm trying to learn things here and there but I 'm close to what I own now so I can be there with people I use and trust.

Almost all of these conferences are designed so the "experts" can sell you something.
