Let me add to Ms. Dwyer's answer that you certainly want to form an entity (or maybe several entities) for this. You could expose yourself to great liabiity by conducting this kind of business in your own name. Your options will depend upon which state you are in and which state(s) the properties are in. You should talk to an attorney in your state about your needs.

Hello. Choice of business structure typically involves complex decisionmaking and pros and cons to the various possibilities. You ought to confer with an attorney at this time. Based on my many years of experience, seeking legal counsel in an undertaking such as you describe is typically profoundly cost-effective.
Some attorneys, myself included, will confer for free, at no charge. Then, if legal work is performed, some attorneys, myself included, will provide a reduced fee for need. All the best.
