I’m in CT and just bought a 4 family house that was operating as a 3 family.

Money orders get made out to you, although this may change if your investment is operating out of a LLC.

I’ve been operating on the understanding that appreciation IS a bonus and not, as you say, an absolute necessity.  

For the long-term generational investors who also subscribe to the global warming and shortage of fresh water predictions, WI will become the prime real estate on the planet in that scenario - lol.

It may cost you a few bucks but they will not just form the LLC but create a strong operating agreement as well.

My issue is the BC side wants the title Seasoned for 15-20days why, I don't know that is how they operate.

Medical tenants generate a lot more cash.

@Lisa Stewart I consider wholesaling to be the best way to get a handle on your local real estate market while you get to know the investors operating in the area.To that end, I would encourage you to get on the list of other wholesalers in your chosen market and begin dissecting their offerings to hone your deal analysis skills.

Maintenance is an operating expense and should be paid using rental income.

If you lease does not prohibit operating a business from th eproperty it does not matter.
