@Jonathan Johnson, you don't need to be incorporated to take tax deductions on your business.

As I am new to the business of real estate investing, I was hoping to ask for advice on what I need to address before I put the property into the company name.Amend the articles of incorporation to add me as an officer? 

The only thing I can think of is if you have entity paperwork that may need to be reviewed by a legal team, ie articles of incorporation or articles of organization.

But I'd assert that medical issues are you greatest risk of loosing the wealth you have created.I had to buy my own health care plan starting in the mid 1990s when I went from working in Corporate America (which provided health care coverage) to working for a small temporary help agency (which did not).

The real trick to getting an LLC that doesn't get pierced is following the formalities of being incorporated and not under funding them.
