How best to Structure Partnerships

[Justin Hroch]

I am buying small multi-family properties. Currently I have a 4-plex and a duplex with one partner (Partner A) and I am under contract with another duplex but plan to buy it with a different partner. (Partner B) 

The two properties bought with Partner A are in an LLC and my intentions were to start another LLC with Partner B. I am great at finding deals and bringing along other partners to help fund them.

My question is do I have to start a new LLC with each partner or is there an easier way to structure this? My fear is having 15 different LLCs!

Any advice would be appreciated!
