What is the right structure for someone starting to make deals?

[Tristan S.]

Hello,

I am a beginner investor, recently closed on my first wholesale deal. Now that I am starting to generate income from real estate, I want to know what would be the best way to structure my business. I am located in Houston, Texas and my goal is primarily to acquire rentals while wholesaling some deals along the way.

I do not have any LLC or anything set up yet. What basic investment structure would you recommend from your personal experience?
I was thinking about two LLC's, one for acquisition (the rentals would be under that LLC name, and I would also use that LLC to do my wholesale deals) and a second LLC that would act as the property management company for the rentals (hold the rent money, pay expenses..etc).

Please let me know what are you thoughts.

Thanks
