This is actually also a benefit sometimes if you plan to take an active roll in the association you might have more control over turning around or improving an ailing condo association. 

Hey everyone, I know the Wichita forum isn't that active but I figured I would give it a shot.

The trust rates were reduced slightly with the 2017 tax law, but not nearly as much as the corporate rates.2018 Estate and Trust Income Tax RatesIf taxable income is:                                The tax is:Not over $2,550                                       10% of taxable incomeOver $2,550 but not over $9,150          $255 plus 24% of the excess over $2,550Over $9,150 but not over $12,500        $1,839 plus 35% of the excess over $9,150Over $12,500                                            $3,011.50 plus 37% of the excess over $12,500Because of the new corporate tax rates, the use of a UBIT Blocker corporation may now make sense for those investors wishing to regularly engage in UBIT exposed activities such as house flipping. 

A “company” that wastes their marketing dollars mailing to houses where title transferred in the last three months and that appear to be active construction sites isn’t one I could see myself sitting down with.

Before you go the traditional way and get a duplex, decide for yourself whether you want to be an active or passive investor?!

@Danielle Dunn Consider reaching out to @Joe White --- he manages rentals in Philadelphia and he is an active member on BP. 

There's tons of investor activity going on right now.

I am an Active Duty Marine Corps Warrant Officer that is stationed in Camp Pendleton, California (San Diego area for the non military folks).

In terms of what @Ken Breeze mentioned, I'd advise you to determine for yourself, how active do you want to be in this investment?!
