I have a tenant who has moved out and  i now have a judgement against. 

It also is helpful to have a California LLC in case you ever sell that property and move into another state so that you do not need to form a new LLC altogether with new operating agreement, just re-register in the new state as a new foreign LLC.

We took a leap of faith and moved where we knew no one.

I, as the new homeowner, am actually moving into this home as my primary residence.

I haven’t done a deal yet so I was thinking that if I did a fix and flip first it would get my feet wet and I would get some experience and then I can move onto a BRRRR or becoming a landlord.  

Additionally, you could also consider charging a higher security deposit in the case that you have to do any extensive cleaning of the property following their move-out. 

Would I have to move the money into my original LLC checking account at some point?

Cash for keys is another option.Good Luck.

I know many Branson shows have foreigners that move to the area for xxxxxxx amount of time to do a show. 

I'm looking at potentially moving/investing in that area
