Another reason why people get nervous is that they feel they want to deliver so much information rather than speaking to the person on the other line as if they were a friend or family member.

I am a pro member of Bigger Pockets and use the calculator for analysis of sfh individually but have not done it for a package of them.

Looking to file taxes for a small and simple member managed LLC (2 total members), and was looking for some advice. 

@Jay Helms I stand up during the members part of our monthly in-person REIA meetings, and announce that I'm happy to talk to, or have coffee with, anyone who wants to talk about real estate.And then, because of that and the fact that some folks recognize me from posting on BP, I usually have a ton of people come up to me during the break and after the main meeting.To be honest, it's exhausting, and sometimes I head to the bathroom just to hide for a few minutes before I can deal with The Crowd.

To further expound on his story, the commercial space is not as difficult as advertised, but finding team members with alignment of interest is the hurdle.

I have been looking in the midwest and found a market I want to start in (Minnesota) , also reaching out to a BP member who is in the area who introduced me to a good property manager. 

This offers the same protections of an LLC, but you can separate each asset into its own “child/member” LLC housed under the “parent” Series LLC filing.

Hello fellow BP member,I am both excited and terrified purchasing my first rental property in Rockville, MD today.

Looking for thoughts from BP members as well as contacts for good refinance lenders for this scenarioAny advice would be greatly appreciated!
