Just my 2 cents, I have bought people out before and that is how I did it.

Additionally, if we open a LLC to manage our own properties, do I need to hold a broker's license in KY to do this legally? 

I recently purchased a 0.42-acre piece of land for $90K.

How do I solve this.

I've been told that for every 1000 people I reach I can expect maybe 1 deal.

The only way I would be considered liable would be if I was negligent about maintaining the trees.

Let's say I already formed a new LLC that would be designated for REI.

I am a huge fan of marketing for STRs.

I do have some cash saved up enought for a down payment, and i would like to buy a property to flip and make money, I KNOW IT IS NOT EASY, especially for someone who has never done it. 

I might need your lenders # It is nuts that I am seeing buyers consider paying 5% points recently.
