I am not a Tax professional or Real Estate financial planner but it can be wise to have at least 1 LLC for your fast-turning properties and at least 1 LLC for your long-term holds.

I'd love to do it myself, but I'd like to see the professionals do one first so I have an idea of the work and process.

I prefer to pay professionals to do the job correctly.

Look at grasshopper.comIt is a professional message service that is about $10 a month.

I'm also very active in church ministry, a freelance professional photographer, pilot in training and eager to get on with RE investing.

Bc it would my first should I leave it to professional lol

:)Not at all professional sounding, but we haven't outgrown it yet...

I would also get estimates to have your roof cleaned before the hearing, and use the cleaning as a bargaining tool, "Would you allow me to have it professionally cleaned as an alternative to replacement?"

Its a carefully balance system that can change over time and easily corrected by a professional.

Then, go out and get a professional inspector to give you all the dirt on the house.
