This is not just you but large investment companies as well. 

Don,My negativity is with those who are starting out, have no assets and buy it in their personal name and then transfer it to a LLC that has a holding company LLC etc.

Working with a property management company can streamline this process, ensuring that all legal requirements are met and it is handled efficiently.

3) Do I need to have an actual company or can I do this as a private individual?

Do they compare to Stainley Steamer/commercial companies?

It has more reliable tenants (some of which even fix the property up), more stable and predictable appreciation, and just over-all less work.

There will never be homes built behind this lot since the power company has an easement for lines behind the trees.We have to move out of state due to my husband’s work.

The renters will contract with and pay rent to the management company (not to us).I would like to protect the property and my personal assets from any legal risk from renters.if we use an LLC to manage that risk…1) Does our property need to be in an LLC or can it remain outside somehow2) What role is the LLC business performing (is it also considered a property management business and thus require a real estate business license in some states)? 

The first screener, James, told me how he once owned a 3000-employee software company that he sold and how, as CEO, he had to make all kinds of uncomfortable decisions where he didn’t have all of the information before making a move.

I tried switching to Turbotenant I think it was and set up the first three epaying tenants and sent themThe link to get signed up and all three complained that they’d never heard of the company, didn’t know if they could trust them to be secure, and just wanted to keep things like it was, if it wasn’t broke why change it.
