The folks that are qualified to give you specific advice about your specific situation are asset protection or real estate attorneys.  

It can be accomplished through notes, but then you have no inflation protection or value increase.Here is my solution.I hold about $1.5 million in notes, yielding me 19% per year, or about $285,000. per year.I hold about $2 million in real estate, with mortgages of $1.2 million.

Other entities can be used, but a single-member LLC is the most straightforward approach.If checkbook control is achieved through a Solo 401k, no additional entity is required (but can used if desired for asset protection or other reasons).You can purchase tax foreclosures properties with a self-directed IRA.

Hello BP Community, I recently start investing in RE, I will own 9 SFH thru turnkey company's at the end of this year, I'm not sure if I'm ready to set up a LLC company for asset protection or just go with an umbrella liability insurance policy, I live in California and all the REI are in other states, any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Liability protection or is it something else?

In your shoes, I would find a property and get the financing lined up and then worry about asset protection or whatever.

Or you could use interlocking LLCs which add complexity but also more liability protection.
