some of my clients, in a similar situation, went with a corporation (C corp, not an S) that owned a different LLC for each property.

From what I have heard of Florida that it has a growing population and a need for housing.Forming an entity of some type of a corporation or a LLC will help you in keeping your personal items separate.  

I'd put your money to work once you understand what you are doing, find some partners that you gel with and complement you and  get in the game.  

Hello,Can anyone here recommend a real estate lawyer in Arizona who can advise me on setting up a corporation for holding real estate investments?

No. 207 says: (A) In magisterial district court proceedings:***(3) Corporations or similar entities and unincorporated associations may be represented by an attorney at law, by an officer of the corporation, entity, or association, or by an employee or authorized agent of the corporation, entity, or association with personal knowledge of the subject matter of the litigation and written authorization from an officer of the corporation, entity, or association to appear as its representative.I believe this would allow you to represent the LLC in a standard eviction action before the magistrate court in most cases. 4.

[i] 59 OS § 858-301 states, “It shall be unlawful for any person to act as a real estate licensee, or to hold himself or herself out as such, unless the person shall have been licensed to do so under the Oklahoma Real Estate License Code.” 59 OS § 858-102 (11) states, “‘Licensee’ shall include any person who performs any act, acts or transactions set out in the definition of a broker and licensed under the Oklahoma Real Estate License Code.” 59 OS § 858-102 (2) states, “The term ‘real estate broker’ shall include any person, partnership, association or corporation, foreign or domestic, who for a fee, commission or other valuable consideration, or who with the intention or expectation of receiving or collecting a fee, commission or other valuable consideration, lists, sells or offers to sell, buys or offers to buy, exchanges, rents or leases any real estate, or who negotiates or attempts to negotiate any such activity, or solicits listings of places for rent or lease, or solicits for prospective tenants, purchasers or sellers, or who advertises or holds himself out as engaged in such activities.”

Using real estate is always well for businesses, corporations, along the journey of someone's definite of purpose.

I have realized that over the last 12+ years in corporate america that the stress, bureaucracy, and increasing hours are taking time away from my family, friends, hobbies, and myself.  

I found the corporation people extremely difficult to deal with. 

Still a spring chicken @John Arendsen :-)  I'm in my 50's and have similar personal beliefs but "corporate" beliefs are a different animal.
