PRO TIP:  With all the anti-STR activity, if the seller is the one creating/incorporating/organizing the HOA (or if the seller still has control of the HOA), have part of the deal include that both of your units be "guaranteed" to be able to be used as STRs (as long as municipal ordinances don't specifically forbid it). 

I have some skills in social media management, video editing skills, logo/Graphic design.

What you really need to create are the partnership documents or articles of incorporation so when you are all standing in the kitchen screaming at each other you have a document to explain how you will dissolve the partnership.

I have not incorporated.

I struggled with the same identity crisis when I worked in Corporate America.

If you could find a buyer off market and incorporate the realtors commission or any closing cost in there it would probably be worth it.

I would set up a special purpose LLC either way you go.The fees to incorporate vary by state, but they're not too costly - here in Florida it's $100 to file and $25 for the registered agent.

See the IRS.gov site for information on businesses, both Schedule C, partnerships, and incorporated entities.

I'll stand by my previous comments in regards to an Estate should incorporate entities, insurance and trust(s).

Since all my entities are single member LLC's, I can incorporate my rental property LLC's and my lending LLC into one QB file.
