Insurance claim and hiring LLC to manage & invoice contractors?

[Steve Sauro]

Hello community,

Let me frame this up. My wife and I own a rental in our name. We also have a LLC that has a property management agreement with 'us' to manage the property.

Sunday we had a pipe burst which caused significant damage. The house is a STR and no one was present at the time it burst. I went and performed mitigation measures which were OK'd by the insurance agency. The adjuster came etc and I'm waiting to hear back on what/how much they will cover.

The question is this: Can I use the LLC to issue an invoice to me for the time and materials needed to take mitigation measures as well as repairs moving forward?

Would love input on this.  I don't want to do anything 'illegal' but in effect, I am doing a lot the work and it seems legit that I be paid (IMO)

Thanks
