If your looking into purchasing more properties for business use then perhaps an LLC would be more beneficial but once again, it is up to you and your preference.Before filing your taxes, get in touch with an accountant or CPA who is well versed in Rental Properties and discuss in detail so that you can maximize your deductions.It may seem like a huge complicated process but I assure you it is very simple once you get the hang of it.
