When I was starting out, articulating what was happening was tough...

Your answers are always thoughtful and well articulated and you really are a great contributor on BP.

Another thing i would suggest is that maybe being more precise and articulate on exactly what you want in your home design might help bring the cost of the design down.

In the process, you will be covering the tab for some nice family vacations  for whomever you hire to set up this structure.....My advice to anyone who wants to spend on anything beyond an LLC in the state in which they live or where the property is located should first be able to articulate the following:1.

Before you jump through the hoops and incur the transactional fees of transferring this duplex titled to yourself and wife to an LLC can you articulate the liability exposure risks you believe could impact your personal assets?

Be able to articulate that difference when questioned about it. 

This is a case study of what to avoid if you decide to go down this road.Bringing this back to my initial comments, has this particular seller articulated his/her motivation?

Good job.I have a theory I've been working on for years and I still don't know how to articulate it very well.

It's normally the fear of being listed as a defendant in a complaint and not the actual taking of assets that leads to this discussion we are having , although not articulated well.

The biggest issue I observe amongst real estate investors is the inability to articulate the reasons why they should transfer properties or simply own properties from day 1 in an LLC.
