My question to the experienced investors is what type of incorporation did you choose (or wish you chose) and why did it work so well (or not!)?

Although we track expenses for each property, there are some overhead items like a printer, attorney fees for incorporating, ordering checks, etc. that apply to the overall business entity and not specifically to an individual property.  

After doing some internet research on jurisdictions, etc, I feel like I have a grasp on some basic "rules": -incorporate through a law firm (for client confidentiality) -incorporate in a anonymity haven, and then open up subsidiaries in the state where you operate The things I'm not clear on are are how are the mundane (and one large) business operations functions handled, such as: -who signs a property lease or mortgage paperwork?

The market value of a property does not incorporate the condition as much as it should.  

This is one of the common reasons for acquiring certain investments in corporations or partnerships.

However, you can glean some good ideas from them to incorporate into your own. 

It's understandable when starting out and you don't have the $300+ to incorporate.

I would assume your lease incorporates/references the condo rules into the lease.

Also, I came across this podcast that has suggested the 'BARRRR' method to incorporate advertising as soon as reasonably possible so that you can potentially write off your rehab cost:any cost incurred before advertising for rent is a capital improvement which will be depreciated over 27.5 yearsincurred costs after you advertise for rent, you have the ability/potential to write the cost off as operating costThis info is a bit over my head since I'm still new, but thought I'd share and welcome thoughts. 

An LLC typically must disclose the members of the LLC on the filing instruments called the Articles of Incorporation.
