The incorporation cost are quite minimal in comparison to the cost of acquiring a property and possible exposure you would have personally if things go left.

We are based in Broward and work in Miami, and while the exposure is nice, I am looking out west for  the first of buy and holds for us.

I recommend checking out the podcasts, they're a great way to get exposure to the entire REI spectrum.  

You can also do broker open houses or public open houses to get exposure to the inventory in your area. 

Essentially, at the beginning of your investing career, your exposure is relatively low and therefore the benefits of putting properties in your own name will likely outweigh the liability protection the LLCs give you.As always though, it's best to consult with an attorney and CPA who can advise on your specific situation.

We would be more than willing to, knock on doors, help with renovations, perform administrative work, or anything we can do to give someone a hand in exchange for some real world exposure to the industry. 

If that property is under your name I believe you still have personal exposure.

I, too, am looking at the DFW market for new exposure possibilities. 

If it's "corporate veil" can be pierced, your exposure is total.You want to build a business entity structure such that there are multiple level of protection.Here's a typical scenario as my investing group has learned it form our tax and legal expert:You set up a personal or family trust.

I have a real interest in Real Estate Property and I am hopefully looking at getting some new exposure/experiences within Real Estate in both the U.K and U.S.
