Has anyone started a separate management company for added protection?
I read an article written by an attorney that suggested starting a separate management company to provide another layer of protection in the event of a lawsuit. Has anyone done this? Is it worth the trouble?
Here's the article. Scroll down to "The Recommended Two Company Structure". The rest of the article is worth a read. There are many more good articles on this site as well. This is in TX btw.

I'm making preparations to get kicked off doing mobile homes. It looks like I'm going to start with one LLC. I'm still researching the Series LLC but haven't made a decision on it yet. That's for another thread.
Thanks for the input. It looks like I'm going to have to place a call to an attorney soon.
