LLC  and management company setup will be crucial

I know a company at of Pacific Northwest that has some as well but not a ton.

I'm trying to determine if it would be better to sell and collect this equity on one of my properties or keep it and continue reaping the nice cash flow it produces. 

If it seems like too much, think about traditional rentals, rent-to-own, or teaming up with corporate housing companies for a simpler and potentially more guaranteed approach.

I also work with a great title company in the Memphis area that have been very helpful on that front.  

Reedy and company is the property management company.

Thanks, #1 and #2 - provided my feedback in earlier thread #2 _ it depends - I have duplex in NC RTP since 2007 and it has been smooth sailings for them since it all depends on the property management company you deal with #3 Also in $300K you won't get duplex in any good localities in NC and/or Texas unless one is forced to go to shady areas where you then deal with lot of tenant eviction and section-8.

I own a bookkeeping company for REIs if you’d like to chat. 

I also have been looking at brick houses because I heard Insurance companies insure lower on brick homes and I really like how they look. 

Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing substantial amounts of money into our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon.
