However the property is still under my name, Do I have to report taxes for the SM LLC (which has its own EIN) that technically has no income?

Property purchased late 2018, so seasoning is not an issue. yes renovations were done sone time ago.The lender is involved in BP, so I’ll leave it at that.

Do the math, pay taxes now on a small amount or pay taxes later on a larger amount, it really doesn't matter - this is very true when making the Roth Conversion decision and is pretty close on distributions.The issue is the penalty! 

Only issue is if you want to go larger size buildings there is not much.

The issue I'm having though is that I don't own the land, am not leasing the land (dock lease), and am not a general contractor.

Take action as soon as you can when any issues arise.

or the split model where guest pays part of that …Anyone have specific experience on these two issues?

Conduct thorough research: Since you won't have a real estate agent representing you, it's important to do your own research on the property, its value, the neighborhood, and any potential issues or liabilities associated with it.2.

Compared that with RE where your rent/cash flow only increase in time(technically into perpetuity) along with appreciation, leveraging(velocity of money), tax benefits, mortgage paydown etc.
