It may very well be simpler to just use the LLC name, though I see no reason why using a DBA would cause a problem.To avoid any problems, I would recommend consulting the lawyer you have look at your contracts and get his opinion.

i was told by a Rehab/Hard Money lender that in order to refi after the rehab is complete i will need a score of over 700...and they advised me to move my current 4 rental multi family properties into an LLC and that will put me in a better spot personally to refi out of Hard money...my current scores are 690 665 and 664...by moving my rental properties out of my name it will decrease my debt but also lower my incomei will be consulting my attornery and cpa but wanted to throw this out there to see if anyone here has done this or any advice...thanks

All the profit is going to be either ordinary income or sort term capital gains unless you hold for over a year.You really want to consult with your CPA and see what strategies he or she will support.

She will learn some valuable people skills, you can pay her a management fee (start a Roth IRA for her) and so on.If I had any advice it might be to get a qualified attorney to draw up the lease, consult your insurance agent for all needed protection (including an umbrella policy if you don't already have one), screen the roommates, and if she rents to friends she may lose them due to her 'manager' status.Lastly, what is your exit strategy?

We focus on apartments of 100+ units, mobile home communities, senior (not assisted) complexes for partners and consulting services.

The correct advice: consult a tax pro.

That should be something less than $150K in this case, so that would all fall under the exclusion, provided the two of five years condition is met.As always, consult someone who really knows for a truly correct answer.

Many mortgage consultants sorely underestimate the negative impact on the credit report these events have.

NationwidepiEnjoy reading your posts but the statement you made that it is not legal for an agent to receive funds outside of closing is 100% wrong if your talking about fees for service.In California a broker can be paid fees for services before, during, or after a deal, and as a matter of fact there doesn't even have to be a deal just a consultation..

I consulted a couple lawyers and they tell me that I am OK and that even if challenged in the future I would have no problem.
