Hi, We own a couple of homes in the country and have first hand seen how difficult it is to manage the rentals remotely. 

Consider how involved you want to be in the management of the property.

Arman Singh is an amazing real estate agent and LPG Management provides exceptional remodeling services and property management.

Are we correct that if we were to create a business entity such as an LLC for real estate investment, and we were actively involved in the management of our investments, then we could offset our LLP's current year's income by using any net loss from our investment property that we acquire this same year? 

It could be Steadily who is great for affordable property management insurance.

For those of you that have created a strong team (acquisition, contracting, finance, management, etc.) to streamline your investment portfolio--even from out of state--what has worked the best for you and/or what do you wish that you had done differently?
