If he lives in Detroit, and is getting involved with the community, then he has a better chance than most people Looking at Detroit from afar.

If you don't like being a Landlord find a different job that doesn't involve people.A Lease is good protection for both parties.

Lastly, try to get involved in the Bigger Pockets community.

You are also able to print out the report to show with others involved. 

Usually, it's best not to get involved, you can't save everyone.

With multiple people involved you definitely want to set up some separate entity but not necessarily an LLC.

I buy or assign here and there, but no banks are involved anymore.

LLC bank account, and things go from there.Also, if you are paying them interest etc, it is best to do this on a quarterly or better, yearly payment, due to cost and hassles involved in multiple small international transfers - more cost effective in one big lump.Hope this helps....

As soon as an agent gets involved creative deals get much tougher.
