@Gabriel RasconThis is what I got from your post: you want to avoid hiring a property manager and self-manage a freshly-purchased turnkey duplex.

I am a beginner Real Estate Wholesaler in Central PA - Cumberland County seekIng my first deal.

I've gotten a lots of good advice and information from the folks on here I'm in the Central Illinois area and have visited Chatham several times its a nice area! 

Imtiaz,I have not used an overseas VA for calls but you could use a phone service like Ring Central.

So I’m transferring 6 properties into LLCs simultaneously... a lawyer friend said, “to avoid any potential due-on-sale clause BS... you can actually contact each lender and notify/sign something saying I’m responsible for ABC LLC, and usually they’re ok with it. 

I had hoped to spend $20k but underestimated some of the costs and also splurged on some of the rehab (I installed a new high efficiency central furnace, on-demand water heater, all new appliances, etc)Rental Details:I posted the property on craigslist for $2,490 and had one open-houseFound great tenants who signed for a year lease at $2,490.

I’m not reallt sure how you can entirely avoid it.

I use CashApp - 1-2 business days for free transfer and 1%+ for instant transfer.If Tenants know they are late - they pay rent plus 1% to avoid late fees.You see the transaction pending in your phone in seconds.

Keep doing that until you die (inelegant, I know) and leave the props to your heirs who receive a stepped-up tax basis (meaning you've successfully avoided all that capital gain and depreciation recapture tax).

I have a tenant who lives in a walk-out basement unit in central IL.
