DSTS also may have many of the expenses of ownership of the property as opposed to NNN where the tenant is responsible for all taxes maintenance and insurance.One big key factor is that both NNN and DST properties qualify for 1031 treatment. 

California also has special fees that apply to out of state LLC's, and I don't understand whether the tax treatment of these entities are different.Would appreciate any advice, as well as a reference for a lawyer to advise and help create protections offered by different entities (Series LLC vs Delaware Statutory Trust for example) and a CPA to help advise on the costs/benefits of using those same types of entities.

It was pointed out to me that if I gave one tenant "special treatment," such as a payment plan for their deposit, it could be construed as discrimination against tenants who were not given the same opportunity.  

The big banks have spent the last 8 years trying to get those loans off their books, while giving themselves the V-8 treatment...stupid, stupid, stupid!

This is a dog of a deal.Give it the Old Yeller' treatment...I'd be surprised if any experienced lender would even do a loan on this for you.  

A single member LLC has no effect at all on taxes, unless you elect special tax treatment.

I ran into an issue, trying to find a company for "Ground soil treatment" before pouring concrete ....so far I was not lucky with regular fumigation companies from craigslist, they don't do give the certificate needed  for the inspector, any leads?

I focus mostly on buy and hold, but based on projected returns I will also do a flip if the situation is right.As far as your properties are concerned, I'd be interested in talking more to see how you are currently treating them and what the best treatment going forward would be.Thanks and best of luck!

As to this discussion, your tax rate may be too low if you end up holding for less than 12 months and don't get long-term gain treatment.  

It shows evidence of past termite damage with no professional treatment.
