Agreed with Account Closed - putting real estate, or a real estate partnership - within an S-Corporation provides effectively no value, while creating significant headaches and tax consequences.The only real benefit left for an S-Corp is partial shielding of employment taxes - but a rental property already doesn't produce any self-employment taxes, so the one benefit already doesn't apply to the rental.Then you have problems with not getting basis in the debt of the property, having a lack of flexibility on future structure, issues with distributions in excess of basis...just nothing about it is good.If the Partnership hires a property manager, and that property manager ends up being your S-Corp - great, now you are perhaps better managing your exposure to self-employment income as a result of these property management fees.

Managers cost so much and make repairs cost even more, I do not see their value until you have 50+ units and no time.
