That means you establish a Traditional LLC to carry out the operations of your investments, in order to separate the highest liability actions from your assets, including: paying property management, paying contractors, collecting rent, marketing, etc.

This scenario is more likely with small banks that you have an established relationship with.

@Mark Creason That is a huge game changer.

I was a GC in Florida and now I’m working for a well established company contracting disaster damage / insurance claim repair (roofing from hail and wind, and flood, fire, etc..) over the entire Houston area.

Hi @Stephen Witkowski,For the most part Open Houses are free game.

This is the longer game where you don't get paid until the end. 

I have a well-established buyers list, have connections, verified that my documents are legal, reached out to realtors, etc.

In Columbus, we have countless area-market pages for listings/agents (such as Dublin and Hilliard OH Homes for Sale and Rent page), so those too could be valuable to make a presence on.Also, Consider establishing your own personal (Broker) content-consistent Facebook page/profile that will drive clients to you from the Cinci group, etc. 

Hi Paxson,You've crossed the biggest hurdle of getting into this game by actually purchasing your home. 

We have recently established LLC, subsequently purchased an investment property in the state of New York but because of LLC being relatively new  my husband had to guarantee the loan to finance the property.
