Me and my brother are looking to start a real estate llc investment company...my bro is an accountant for an established real estate llc in Chicago involved in bigger deals 25+ unit bldg...I have a degree in construct...

The following weekend I closed the opening and thought "Cool, problem fixed"...Well one morning I noticed that something had made a mess in my kitchen and there was a banana clawed and eaten.The sink base cabinet was slightly open and upon further review there is missing dry wall underneath the back side of the sink that creates an entry way to my unit.I blocked this sink base cabinet so it won't open but I know this is still a temporary fix...what should I do?

The barrier to entry is low in this industry and with 14K+ agents in Chicago its a constant revolving door.

You can purchase signage from them and there are many other add ons but I have never spent more than the entry level $300 package.

The journal entry into the entity's books would be to debit the expense and credit capital contribution (to the respective person).Here are a few things to add to what Ashish said, LLCs are able to have disproportionate distributions while S-corporations are not. 

Grant Cardone is right that buying SFRs can be a lot more work than buying massive apartment complexes, but the barrier to entry is much lower.

The last one didn't like their perfectly good entry door (we have 6 panel steel fire doors) & wanted to know if they picked out a new one at Lowes & had it installed could they just take the cost off the rent. 

Barriers to entry (new construction) are high with permitting hurdles (here in the west anyway).A lot has been discussed about whether we are in a bubble or not. 

I currently work at a commercial real estate firm, but am personally more intrigued by investing in residential, and feel like the entry to residential is more feasible for my situation.

Is it reasonable to expect the same level of salary as entry level accounting jobs?
