I also want one who is willing (for a fee, of course), to complete the paperwork for me that the wholesaler won't, in order to finish my transaction. 

I think holding in your personal name with an umbrella policy may be similar risk wise to holding the property(ies) in an LLC but with perhaps lower overall costs after factoring minimum taxes and fees associated with an LLC.Perhaps an atty could tell you what the process would be for transferring properties into an LLC, but I don't imagine it would be difficult. 

With your lease, make sure you have an early termination clause, pest control, pet fees,  and the # and limitations, also I would recommend requiring renters insurance.     

I'd suggest calling some contractors in your area and explain what you're trying to do and possibly trying to offer a small fee for houses that are not yet under contract in exchange for a estimate.

Another thing to be aware of are desk fee agencies.

Plus you'll be paying fees/membership here that it sounds like you might not be benefiting from.  

Brokerage fee can kill you also.
