New member to the RE Bowl. We just acquired our first rental property and we plan on more. What’s preferred structure to hold the property? Do I make an LLC for each property or do I make trusts? Do I have an LLC that controls the trusts? TIA!

Just get an umbrella insurance and that all you need. No need to have LLC. No advantage

I have one RP and the research I had done didn’t suggest any major benefit in starting an LLC. There’s cost in setting that up too.

Putting rental properties in an LLC offers personal liability protection, keeps business finances separate, and adds credibility. It also provides tax flexibility and makes it easier to transfer ownership or plan estates. It’s a smart move for anyone with multiple rentals looking to protect their assets and grow their investment portfolio.

Umbrella policy provides the same benefits without the extra hassle

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right. He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it more advantageous to have low housing prices and higher interest rate? If that's the case, you can always refinance when/if the interest rate lowers again. Is there something I'm not seeing?

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%. He also said a recession would be better than the consequences of unchecked inflation. He announced he will bring rates to a “restrictive level” until “the job is done”. He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
