This means that if anything goes wrong with the property—like a tenant getting injured or a lawsuit related to the rental activities—the LLC, not you personally, would be the one held responsible.

Maintenance and repairs typically range from 5-7% of rental income, compared to the standard 10%, as new builds have fewer immediate issues.
