If your rentals are owned by an LLC, who goes to court?
More specifically, I'm planning a business, not a simple owner / landlord deal, where I will have a full time staff and a large portfolio of residential properties both SFR and Multi-fam.
My question, then, is if / when the time comes that I need to evict a tenant, or happen to be unfortunate enough to have a tenant sue, who is required to go to court? Would it be something I could simply send a representative of the company to court, along with my lawyers, or am I personally responsible for showing up at each and every hearing, as I would be the owner of the company?
