Ironically its the investors in the layered LLC's who believe they are hidden in the cloaks of secrecy and better protected who end up in  the most costly and drawn out litigation while giving the plaintiff attorneys reason to take a more thorough look under the hood.Keep your LLC ownership simple, carry appropriate insurance, make sure ever vendor you work with carries appropriate insurance and those who perform work functions most likely to lead to liability exposure list you ad additional insured (not merely certificate holder) and it should go without saying, avoid negligent conduct.

The notion that you actually make money during the lead certification process is a complete fabrication.

Some title/ certificate of occupancy issues can cost $10,000’s-6 figures to resolve.

Where are you with the city required Certificate of Compliance process?

Check the section 8 checklist and be sure you will pass (do you have a lead cert if you need one, do all your bedrooms count as bedrooms, anything weird about the house that won't pass inspection? 

If it's formed right, typically all that's required is a certificate of trust and a few more documents to show the chain of ownership and grantee/grantor.Will this be a rental?

So you still need to sign.Have you provided them a copy of the operating agreement of the LLC, certificate of good standing etc.

Do you hold any financial advisor certifications?  

Do you know how to tell the difference between being a certificate holder and receiving additional insured status? 

However, it's nicer as you don't have to deal with lead certification laws that are all wonky and poorly enforced.
