I have a cash flowing MF portfolio (about 80 units) and I will be leaving my corporate job soon to 1) be a better Mom to my kids and 2) focus on growing my RE portfolio.  

Thanks for the notice.Exemption Conditions for Single-Family Homes and CondominiumsSingle-family homes and condominiums are only exempt from AB 1482 if BOTH of the following conditions apply:The property is not owned by one of the following: a real estate trust, a corporation, or an LLC with at least one corporate member.

The same question is analyzed every day by millions of businesses, investors, wealth managers, financial analysts, and corporate treasurers world wide.

I have 30+ years of corporate finance experience; FP&A, Supply Chain Finance, new business ventures, tech infrastructure investments, and entertainment.

If not, we’ll need to have one ordered for you.Entity Documents (NEEDED FOR PREAPPROVAL):LLC/LLP i.Copy of Articles of Formation/Incorporation ii.Copy of fully executed Operating Agreement/Partnership Agreement (all pages & amendments) iii.Certificate of Foreign Qualification (if applicable) Corporation i.Copy of Articles of Formation/Incorporation ii.Copy of fully executed Corporate Resolution designating authorized signer(s) for the Corporation iii.Copy of fully executed Corporate Bylaws iv.Copy of stock certification v.Certificate of Foreign Qualification (if applicable)Identification (NEEDED FOR PREAPPROVAL): Copy Driver’s License or Passport for each Guarantor.Rent Roll (NEEDED FOR PREAPPROVAL): We’ll need to get an understanding of the current cash flow of the property.

You should already be separating business and personal completely, otherwise the LLC is useless, and they can pierce the corporate veil.

This means that you will probably need to pay registration and filing fees in at least 2 states if you don’t buy CA property as a CA resident.Any lawsuits should be limited to the assets of the LLC and not your personal assets (assuming you run the LLC appropriately and the corporate veil is not pierced, some debate as to SMLLC).

I joined this group with the hopes of starting a Real Estate Investment business soon so that I can step away from the corporate life I have lived for more than 30 years.It's time for me to try something new...oh, where to begin :) 

REITs are corporations that invest directly in commercial real estate, and when you invest in a REIT, it is like buying stocks, where shares can be purchased and sold.

I have been reading that corporate investors are buying many homes there and I now I am having second thought about the area.
