@taylorbrugna - I think is the simplest way to show money in when received and out when invoice is paid out.The issue that we have run into doing that is sometimes there are more charges in a given month due to the billing dates.Let's say the June mowing bill came the last week of the month and was paid in June also we then show double the normal cost in June and then we have explain why we had an increase in mowing.

My question is, normally I am a buy and hold guy, however the numbers are making me question what I should do.

@Candace Postell,The attorney should be able to handle everything since you don't need marketing or any of the stuff an agent normally does.There's a lot of misconception about what agents do.

Normal laundry machines can be bought less expensive. 

I normally bank with DCU but they will only go up to 80% combined ltv

depends on the market... some markets were your dealing in low value assets .. then wholesalers are pretty much your go to folks as agents don't want to work neighborhoods that are that dangerous or values so low.in higher value areas.. wholesalers from what I see will normally take all the meat out of the deals.. and or simply are new and don't understand how to value a property and certainly have no clue as to what rehab costs.. so its a time suck generally speaking.

Is it normal to have the water bill and the HOA on a single account that the HOA management company uses for accounting purposes?  

Optimize for the best deal on the finance side for sure.The trick is that convention loans will normally not be approved if the property cannot be occupied & insured.

Many things play into the national economy and global economy, real estate being one slice of a very big pie. 

@Steve Vaughan Interesting strategy of purchasing the LLC vs. normal transaction to save on closing!
