I am open to hear any suggestion or advice to make better investment decisions and get more tax benefits like setting up an LLC .

You all must agree to the same thing or else you will just end up fighting about what to do.Since your mom doesn't have it in a living trust, I suggest you do that right away.

I suggest using a service like Mayistay.

Just a suggestion ...

I'm just suggesting you be well informed:I loved reading Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad Poor Dad"... it was extremely informative and eye opening... albeit told in a bit of a crazy way.  

From flooding in the Midwest to bomb cyclones on the East Coast, drought in California, the weakened Gulf Stream winds…. all were suggested as risks years ago.i can’t remember 100 mph Santa Ana wind speeds in the 80s, 90s, or 2000s.

I'd also suggest self-managing your first property to maximize cash flow and learn by doing for any future investments.

The “methodology” the guru presents either isn’t all that profitable, isn’t as simple to enact as he suggests, and or works only with certain limits as to economic climate, geographical area, etc.2.

I have thought about Fundrise (medium success when I invested there), Crowdstreet (I have not invested there but might consider), farmtoghether (20k invested there already) and groundfloor (bad experience so not looking to invest there).Any advice will be appreciated.There is no greater wealth than peace of mind - Buddha - If it's just a redeployment of capital issue into a different market, I would suggest either syndication, or (this is going to sound crazy) into cattle.

Good suggestion by @Drew Sygit to consider section 8 tenants for possible cashflow and lower vacancy.
