Best Business Structure for Real Estate Investing
Sorry, I know there's a lot of material out there on this topic but I still can't seem to make a decision on what type of business structure makes the most sense for me.
I'm just starting out, but my plan is to start out with wholesaling and "fix and flips", and eventually get into buying rental properties. Everything that I've seen says that an LLC is best for long term investments (rentals), and an S Corp is best for short term investments (fix/flip). Does this mean that I need to separate my business into two businesses?
Thanks,
Daniel
