@Kiran Alisam the 1st thing you'd need to do is put them in you and your partners personal names.

Personally, I have my license but it's really due to the amount of volume I'm aiming for and my long-term goals in real estate.  

Do I need a real estate license in Colorado to manage my own property(owned by me) if I want to use an LLC to protect myself. in other words I want to have the money for rent and maintenance for the property to go through my LLC to protect my personal property but does this mean I have to get licensed?

It will be helpful if the person is also familiar with 1031 Exchange rules.  

For the most part I find decent information here.I do also suggest that there is literally no replacement for getting out and networking IN PERSON at RE Clubs.

Seller FinancingLine of Credit Wait for a rich family member to die (I don't have one of those) At this point my DTI Is still pretty decent and they would probably give me personally, at least one more property until the 2 years worth of W2s come in, but I want to take this thing to the next level.

I personally know and trust the GC I plan to use but he says he will not pull permits in his name, only in the homeowner/businesses name... is this smart?

Commercial loans with personal guarantee I have.  

Protection and shielding of personal assets but I believe you already knew that.

I realize this is a super basic question and more info might be needed, but I wanted to see what you all thought: Do I pull out the cash from the refinance to continue to fixing up the property or do I use the cash to put a down payment on another unit?
