If I borrowed the money from a 3rd party but loaned myself the down payment from a corporation I control which then held a 2nd position lien, it seems I would effectively be shielding my equity behind a corporation that loaned me the money, one that, as a lender only, wouldn't be subject to the types of claims that an owner would. 

Maybe it could’ve been a blessing in disguise with the uncertainty in how working from home for corporations will impact real estate.I’m revisiting my investment strategy and thinking about how rental properties will be changed.

We are thinking about marketing towards corporate employees as a place to stay while traveling for work.

Conventional residential mortgages are for individuals, not corporate entities.

If you dedicate it then you won’t be con-mingling finds, the issue with maintain your “corporate veil.”

We purchased it under our C corporation where my husband and I are the only shareholders.

Even if you do perform the flip inside of a LLC you could still end up with the same above issue if your LLC is structured as an S-corp or other pass through entities. 

What happens at that point could depend on a number of factors that we don't know, such as: what city/county you live in (and whether there is local rent control ordinances there); what type of property this is (single family or multi-family); how old the property is (newer/older than 15 years); how long the tenants have lived in the property (over 12 months or less); whether the property will continue to be a rental or be taken off the rental market completely; whether the property is owned in your personal name or in the name of a corporation; etc. 

@Eric James Well... we both went into corporate law straight out of law school, where we both had much higher salaries (both started at $180k w/o bonus).

You have to follow the lines of privity to maintain your corporate veil.If you aren’t doing anything in UT and the state policies aren’t helping you, then you probably don’t need it.
