Entity Structure for a Multi-Family House Hack

Kelechi Ubani
Posted

I have meeting pending with a CPA already but I'm curious: When house-hacking a multi family property with an FHA loan, the property is under the owner's name. And so while it's owner occupied, how can the owner leverage a separate entity for the rental income while adding a level of protection on the owner? I thought maybe creating an entity that acts as the management company who collects rent and manages the other units. Thoughts?

With an FHA loan, you aren't an attractive lawsuit target for even the most hungry ambulance-chaser. I'd just get good liability insurance coverage.
