I want to start by thanking everyone who has spent they're very valuable time and energy putting all of the content that has been created.

This all comes down to the matter of if you have a burning passion for sales, otherwise, I do advise that you take the more standard approach I mentioned to save your time and energy.

Mark Robbins of Lending Resources Group saved unknowable amounts of time, energy, and frustration helping me quickly find a bank that would bundle all 3 homes into one loan.

For example if you assume inflation is 5% (Official inflation is about 3% but this number does not include energy or food.), over a 10 year period the purchasing power of $1,000/Mo. in rent decreases to about $614/Mo.

May need a door blower test for energy code compliance. 

It's a low-probability numbers game and many quit before they have invested enough time and energy. 

You're spending entirely too much time and energy trying to mask ownership of two properties and shield yourself from personal liability. 

In the past few years I was burnet and learn a lot.... the most important tip I have for you to if you want to start  investing remotely: people people people. location is important , analyzing a deal is important a great plan is important but if the key people in your team are dishonest none of this would matter. find a key focal contact and spend all the time and energy to make sure he/she is an expert in the specific market and reliable. talk to other investor who is working with this individual. if they cant provide few names of investors you can talk to - move on.

I'm still extremely new to this and don't want to waist my time, energy, and money.

First, find your LOCAL buyers.Most newbies think they need the deals first and that just takes more time and energy.
