I can have multiple one use code for contractors so I can control access without physically going there.You do not need to carry the key, just need to keep track all codesMain disadvantage is that the locking requires the door to close properly, otherwise the tenant may not know the door is not licked.

You'll have a slight disadvantage compared to the local population, but nothing that should crush you.

Separately, the benefits and disadvantages of renting to Section 8 is a topic of extended debate on this forum.

I have so many questions though.1) Can anyone tell me more about series LLC and whether it's necessary to hold each property in a separate LLC2) What are your thoughts on a trust, rather than an LLC - advantages, disadvantages etc?

Great question @Lorraine Hadden,You should always compare both side by side to see the advantages /disadvantages to each.

Our home state, TX, has really high property tax which is see as a big disadvantage.

What is the expected return on investment, and how does it compare to syndication in terms of advantages and disadvantages? 

Avoid PMI and then go to a local credit union and get a heloc after closing to gift the money back.Have this as a tool in your tool belt but pursue use of the 3.5% FHA, knowing that you will be at a competitive disadvantage if you are competing with non FHA buyers, then you can call in the favor from your gift person.Just know that if someone gifts you down payment money, your bank will require them to sign a letter stating that it is in fact a gift that doesn’t need to be paid back.

Realistically, there should be no benefit, and there are probably some disadvantages, of doing what you propose.
