@Prash Aksh PMI depends on how much you put down on the property and will only generally occur when you're doing an FHA or 5% down loan.

If I don't pay for their PM duties  -are they still going to be the PM based on fee collected as things occur like renting, maintenance fee, etc? 

That is because if vacancy occurs it can be a big hit, need the extra cushion.

Assuming you've already made sure there is not a ghost with the munchies, its either a setting that was improperly setup (like a timer accidently programed to turn on at a set time) or something is malfunctioning.

Either way I’ll figure it out, or maybe another opportunity to finance the deal will occur but I’ll start looking/interviewing some lenders from the area and meet with local individuals.

If that ever occurs, you can then talk about the possibility of Seller Financing which would be a benefit to you.

That hadn't occurred to me.

The reason I ask is because I had the thought that an investor could just get a HELOC to pay for CapEx when it occurs.

So even if you pick a state with stronger protections like WY or NV, the cause of action arose in the state where the tenant fell, so likely that the court where the accident happened would have jurisdiction.California tends to have more laws on the books and requirements and restrictions that it can be a good idea to form a CA LLC for out of state property so that you as a CA resident are covered, and to try to have your contracts fall under the purview of CA courts.

I have remained out of trouble for the last 11 years since my release and am looking to switch careers because of a car accident and subsequent injury. 17 years have past since my conviction and 11 since my release.
