Lets say one makes 100K in a corporate America on W2 (which is about 6K per month after taxes).

My wife's business utilizes Corporate rentals quite often for her employees. 

This has saved our butts probably 10 times with slippery tenants.In one very recent instance, a commercial tenant edited the lease to swap a Corporation out for his personal lessee status (AKA removing him as a guarantor), and literally added the Landlord's signature on it. 

They are the new home buyers, trend setters and corporations are moving to where they are.

Items like forming an LLC, getting a logo and a website, business cards, finding people you can work with (contractors, lenders, real estate agents, real estate attorneys) to support your efforts etc.The bottom line is this stuff takes time - so be prepared to give your patience a workout!

I run a couple of corporate rentals and was told that Georgia law states I can only have 2 people in a one bedroom apartment but that was for long term leases.Is there a law that states I can have up to 4 people if it is short term (less than 2 weeks majority of the time) 

Meaning... is there big development occurring or a major corporation moving in? 

I am looking to buy my first property and thought this would be the best way to catapult me into real estate investing.Home is worth 780K and I would 380K.The thought was to get liquid and leverage the money to purchase a duplex/triplex and have some leftover for maintenance and unknowns.I was told selling my home to my corporation might be the best way to get all my monies in my home for that first step in real estate investing.Looking for comments and suggestions or anyone else in the same situation and how you moved forward. 

If it needs work, perhaps you should look into building corporate credit while you take care of your personal credit.

Someone could be worth 50 million but if they have no guarantee or a single entity remote LLC it is worthless.You could have all that other stuff and they could simply walk away and keep running other locations of their businesses.If they are a large corporation you want to see if they are credit rated and then if investment grade BBB- or not.
