My parents recently looked into purchasing a property in the mountains to use in the winter to go skiing, but rent out when they aren't there (they live in Michigan).

I don’t know much about investing, but I’m here to ask for some advice on what my parents should do with their RE investments.

If so, it will be the parent company filing the return, since the subsidiary is a disregarded entity.

Anyway, I farmed Beavercreek for several years and found the market to be rapidly appreciating and limited on available investments...a bank sat on a foreclosure for almost 3-years next to my parents house waiting for peak market...properties are selling quickly to mainly owner occupants and there is limite multifamily availability.

Luckily, that is my parent's responsibility and I don't deal with it.

Basically, should I set up an LLC for lease options to tag to my parent LLC or is this separate venture safe without it?

If it is franchisee and not parent corporate then look to whether single or multi unit operator.

Mindy, I run a title company that is owned by a parent company of a new home builder. 

MY RE STORYMy RE story begins with immigrant parents who invested in rental property in their early 20’s here in the states.
