How Do My Partner and I Both Have Visibility To Profits/Expenses?

Lauren Gilliard

Posted

My investing partner and I both have our own separate LLCs, but we want to partner on a deal 50/50 and both have visibility to the all profits/costs/expenses in the bank account. Is it best to create a new LLC/LLP for this deal to have that visibility or is there an alternative? We have a partnership agreement in place, but in order for us to both have visibility to the bank account we need an EIN.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @Lauren Gilliard

Yes I prefer a new LLC. Some people do a separate LLC per property for maximum protection. In my opinion, it's not bad if you don't mind the added headache.

Few other options are a Trust, LLP, LLC owned by your LLC and your Partner's LLC.

I strongly recommend that you consult with a lawyer. Many smart lawyers out there can help you protect your investment and pick the right entity.
