Why didn't I continue to invest in real estate and instead keep working in corporate america? 

During this period, I was an executive in corporate America making a 6 figure W-2 income. 

If you incorporate or form an LLC you will increase your legal protection, lower your audit risk and probably save self-employment taxes.

Everyone is different, but one of the hardest things I found was adapting to an unstructured life (working for myself, at home, as compared to decades in corporate life); it still is a challenge to an extent.I look forward to receiving your wholesale deals; I buy in Orange, Lake, Polk, Osecola and Seminole.Go forth and crush it!

Can anyone take me through an elaborate Step by Step Strategy to incorporate in my first endeavor at a wholesale deal...

For example, the LLC cannot be used for commercial rentals.”Requirement #3: "The LLC must not expire prior to the maturity date of the Deed of Trust.”Step 5: Submitted our documentation the same day - We provided the lender with (what we thought were) LLC documentation, including Articles of Incorporation, Operating Agreement, Statement of InformationWeek of 10/30/17Step 6: Crickets - A week passed by, and no response came in, so I called them.

I just moved to Colorado and have not yet begun looking for a professional job (I am a CPA who has worked in Corporate Tax for the last 10 years after 3 years in public accounting).

2) How should we incorporate?

Also, would it behoove me to keep my job for the time being to be able to claim the income.A combination of #1, #2 and #3, (spitballing here) incorporate as a RE investment business where I flip 2 houses, use that income to purchase a BRRR , repeat a few times, then proceed to #3 where I can now claim the flipping proceeds as income when qualifying for a commercial loan.

I do have a cousin that I could incorporate to facilitate communication to me (possible property management role) and liaison for the contractor on the updates.
