I completely agree with the advice and I'm perfectly okay with not charging him rent.My concern is that by treating this property differently from all the other units in the Series LLC, I may be opening myself up to a situation where I'm weakening my LLC protections even if I keep the financials separate and in order.

Does anyone have any excel/spreadsheet templates they use for organization and having a place where you store that budgeting and timeline information?
