Instead of renting, should I just buy real estate when I move there? 

@Adolphus Fletcher For multifamily investing, most real estate investors typically use an LLC for several reasons:Liability Protection: LLCs protect your personal assets from lawsuits or debts associated with the property.Pass-Through Taxation: Income and losses from an LLC pass through to your personal tax return, avoiding double taxation seen in C-Corps.Flexibility: LLCs allow for flexible management structures and are easier to maintain than corporations.Anonymity: In some states, LLCs can offer a degree of anonymity if you use a registered agent and form the LLC in a state that doesn’t require public disclosure of members, such as Delaware or Wyoming.S-Corps are should be avoided for real estate investing because of various reasons.

I think most of the available mailers come off "corporate" and lack the local feel to attract sellers and potential leads. 

I have followed some of the advice here and have learned quite a lot! 

I'm currently soaking up all of the knowledge I can and I'd love to make connections! 

What a good app to keep track of leases with tenants and collected rent money each month and automatically apply late fees if they don't pay on time?  

If you buy a portfolio of properties, can you live in one of the SFH and get a Fannie loan?

The seller has countered with the following conditions:- Loan to value (LTV): 80%- Earnest money held by seller's recommended property management company- Final inspection within 1 day of closing- Commission paid by to buyer's agent is 2% of final sales price.I'm seeking advice on how to proceed, as I have some concerns:- Why would the seller request an 80% LTV?

Along with risks of natural disasters some areas of the country are also more litigious or even have more uncertain jury pools and that can also play into insurance pricing.

What are the pros/cons of this?
