- Is there a point where you look to a different setup to safeguard the assets? 

If you have an ownership LLC and a management LLC, you will start having a lot of different signature blocks that all need to be kept straight.  

Hello,I am hoping to gain some insight as to how best to organize funds for different uses and/or properties.

I get all their houses walked by 1 sometimes 2 different GCs even before I tell them about it. 

Send the deals directly to the agents (who you can find by doing #1 above on earlier properties).They all have different buying criteria, different contingencies, different inspection practices and requirements, and different requirements for their purchases.

As the customer, the difference between Neighbor as the business, and the "host", do not really matter to me.

There are so many different strategies to finding off market deals.

It is a very different market now.There was only one time I recommended arbitrage to another member.

I stopped using them and got better results with a different postcard - mailing to the same list.

agree with the other comment, different markets are doing different things. also, "be greedy when others are fearful." what people might be afraid of is, lots of commercial ARMs coming up on their rate adjustments, & the new rates (compared to 5y ago when they first purchased) will kill their cashflow, so they'll sell, and if everyone is doing this at once, supply might outweigh demand, everyone has to sell for less than they planned, and everyone who hangs on to their similar properties gets to recalculate their estimated mkt value with the new going cap rates. i don't personally think this is going to cause as insane of a shift as some people do, but it's all speculative, we won't know til it happens. if you can find a deal that pencils with 30y fixed debt, do it.
