Your question about LLCs is something many investors wrestle with, and the answer really depends on your long-term goals and how much risk you're comfortable taking on.For smaller portfolios like yours, setting up separate LLCs for each property can provide additional liability protection, but it also comes with added complexity and costs.

Pros include securing the desired property and strategic planning, while cons involve higher costs, financing challenges, and complexity.

I'm currently selling a 16-unit apartment complex.

Hey Bigger Pockets community, I'm just starting out in Step 1 (get educated) on what I want to become a successful career in real estate investment.I also currently run an e-commerce business that is currently completely online, but would benefit from having a brick & mortar storefront, and I had an idea that maybe using the investment capital I'm looking to allocate into real estate into a commercial property my business can operate out of until I decide to sell the property in or rent it out to another business.I am obviously very naive when it comes to the complexity of any good real estate deal (especially commercial VS residential), but I'm hoping to spend as much time learning from everyone here who is on their journey as well.My main concern with the idea of buying commercial to operate my business out of it that I might struggle to rent it out afterwards and that there may likely be depreciation in the commercial real estate market over the next 5 years.I understand there is a lot of nuance depending on the local market but I'm guessing commercial is even less of a "safe" bet than finding a solid residential deal to leverage in some way.

For example, I’m currently assisting a municipality in purchasing a 200-unit complex that cash flows, ensuring long-term stability for their housing needs.Our Program’s Unique ApproachOur organization is specifically geared toward the Native American population—a demographic that often faces significant systemic challenges.

Would a container community be more sustainable than an apartment complex? 

I had a 1031 client who sold an apartment complex in Iowa and purchased five houses with me in Austin to use as short term and long term rentals.
