Right now we have it where the agreements shows she's the landlord of her property and I'm the landlord of mine but wondering if there was a way to make it under one individual as the landlord?

Your best bet is to ensure that there are no material modifications that would in any way harm or even moderately delay the ability to rent it out and qualify as a normal SFR (one lease, one family) or sell on the market to an owner-occupant

Since each of your LLCs owns 50% of the holding company, but the holding company doesn’t own your individual LLCs, the IRS will likely treat your LLCs as separate, single-member LLCs for tax purposes.

I’m here to learn, grow, and connect with like-minded individuals who can help guide me along the way.I’ve been fortunate to build great networks so far, but I know there’s so much more to discover in the beautiful world of real estate.

Walker,Since you would be renting the building to a Business (or Non-Profit) as apposed to individual renters I would check with your agent to make sure the current coverage will allow that use.  

I wonder if it was because it was under an individual and not a business.

It's truly like having multiple LLCs formed but without the administration tasks and fees that come with having multiple individual LLCs.

I am local to Gainesville, there is a monthly bigger pockets meet up with some awesome individuals that lead it.

So happy to connect with likeminded individuals as we learn & grow together.

Also, we can be relatively sure that they won't overstay without permission, as we tend to be fully rented for a year or more out, sequentially to 3-4 separate individuals.
