Any mixing of personal and LLC funds can compromise this liability protection, potentially making you personally liable for any claims or lawsuits.

Instead of having multiple SFH or duplexes that would potentially require a more hands on approach?

This is how I see it:Single-Family Homes:Pros:Larger pool of potential tenants (families).Simpler management (one tenant, one lease).Often easier to finance.May appreciate faster in some markets.Cons:Only one income stream.Vacancy hits harder financially.Duplexes:Pros:Two potential income streams.Live in one unit and rent the other (house hacking!)

One time I had a guest smoke and it went right up the ducts into my unit, it was awful.I'm conscious about how that could potentially affect guests who will be staying in the upper unit in the future.

Incorporating a washer-dryer hookup in the main house could be advantageous.This addition not only increases the convenience for potential renters but also adds value to the property itself.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

.- Owner must sign a Hold Harmless to indemnify us against any potential tenant lawsuits relating to the work their contractor is doing.--- Another lawsuit resulted from owner's contractor taking down basement handrail to get supplies down the steps, then they didn't put it back and tenant fell down the stairs.- We also negotiate a reasonable completion date, depending on the Scope Of Work (SOW). --- Who gets all the phone calls and wastes time calming a tenant down because the owner's contractor doesn't show up as scheduled after they took time off from work or a 3 day job takes 3 weeks?

Hi guys, I have some questions about putting property into LLCs/protecting assets, any information is greatly appreciated: Question 1: my understanding is that an LLC needs to be actively conducting business in its registered state in order for the LLC protections to apply, otherwise a judge could potentially pierce the corporate veil.

Quote from @Brian Dolbeare: I’m considering purchasing a small multifamily property in Pittsburgh that I really like, except for one potential drawback: it has 100% street parking.In my current market, lack of off-street parking would be a significant negative, especially during winter.

hey guys, I've been talking to a potential PM for my townhouse and he sent me his PM agreement for review.There are a few things in the agreement I didn't like, but I'm not sure if these are common practice or true RED flags.Would love to hear your thoughts...
