I'm actively purchasing multiple properties and would like to leverage hard money loans with terms typically ranging from 1.5 to 2 years.My primary focus is on securing financing that aligns with my investment goals while ensuring that the rates and terms are the most favorable.

Mail the Heirs a letter explaining you want to buy the property.

Hello BP, I am looking to see which local banks in Tampa you may have had success/great experience with for a 75%-80% LTV cash out refi for a SFH investment property?

I have already rented my first property and am excited to continue on to the next.

We would like to have the property to an LLC for liability purposes and then have the LLC owned by our Family Trust for Estate Planning purposes.

Going to try to self manage my first property and looking to lean as much as I can from those more experienced!

To answer both your questions, I would recommend you don't engage a real estate-focused accountant until you have at least one property.

Insurance renewals have been almost doubling for us. Who do you use and why do you like them? Right now we use American modern insurance group. We have enjoyed them and they are super easy to deal with but the premium...

This basically releases the one moving out and the security deposit stays with the property. 

When starting out, I think you should at least be able to get to your property several times within the first couple of years to en reasonable amousure everything is set up and functioning properly.
