@Louis BaselIf the llc is disregarded for tax purposes you should be able not to pay rent as it does not change anything tax wise.However on the liability side you are commingling the llc asset with yours and it will be a factor helping to pierce your company veil.It is often recommended treating each entity as a fully independent business and to document activity between your businesses with contract and payments.

We are all independent contractors with enough time on the side to begin flipping houses which is our overall goal. 

@Matt Engle, my ultimate goal is to become financially independent and be better prepared for retirement.

@Khaled El Dorry I joined the Rat Race to Financial Independence Mastermind Calls hosted by Felipe Mejia and Diego Corzo and its good group of investors on that call and they bring a new guest every week where they go over deals, different strategies to invest and any question you have in general.

From my research, it looks like Waldo, Parkville, South Kansas City, Raytown, Grandville, and Independence are good areas. 

Refinances have a higher fallout rate than purchase transactions for a variety of reasons ("I think my house is worth 5 billion dollars, surely your independent neutral 3rd party refinance appraiser will confirm, or he's an idiot!"

Harold,I recommend contacting several independent agents that handle Business Insurance. 

Purchase price: $22,100,000 Cash invested: $5,500,000 A 426-unit, three-property portfolio conveniently located within the historic Independence, Missouri submarket.

We do a ton of business in independence. 

Does anyone know any independent tradespeople with those licenses who would want to take on a small side job of reviewing the work and signing off for inspection?
