Maybe we will try to do 4-5 BRRRRS in 2020, we are  already eyeing our next one.

When you're a human in your tenant's eyes, it's far harder for them to view you as "the man".We put down $60k on our first BRRR property in 97.

He’s been an ideal tenant (always pays on time and takes good care of the place).If I agree to let him out of his lease how can I protect myself so he continues to pay until the unit is re-rented?

Keep working and grinding and saving and keep your eyes open for an opportunity.

@Milton RiveraWow, that’s really eye opening, thank  you for breaking out the numbers for me like that.

However, don't get huge bug eyes over the opportunity to charge tenants. 

But I'm not sure at what point that could happen, and I don't want to start paying lawyers and then have it blow up and me not get the property in the end, so how can I protect myself while still helping her?

In the eyes of the law, there is no distinction between her unit and mine. 

I don't see how the LLC will strengthen your case, but it might be something to look into for asset protection.  

Now there are problems and you will need to protect yourself and a good insurance person is needed too.7) NEVER, NEVER buy a property that doesn't cash flow when and for how much your plan states.
