It doesn't have to be super complex, but if we could host all of our properties on our own independent website then we can avoid the downsides of the bigger companies such as their cancellation policies.

The downside is if one tenant gets his water turned off, it is the shutoff to the entire building, so you have to stay on top of it and make sure that doesn't happen.

It's still not the worst market you can buy in, but there are a lot of downsides now.

Most municipalities are seeing the downside of flushable wipes.

Question about a possible alternative to the LLC with scorp tax election.LLC with Scorp tax@Brandon Hall, @Steven Hamilton II:)I see 3 downsides to running with the LLC with scorp election.1 Separate tax return for each LLC and yourself.2 Unemployment tax on your income- although limited to $8,5003 Ambiguity on what a reasonable salary is for a house flipper.For number 3, allow me to expand on my confusion. 

The only downside is that someone (you) would have to check them monthly and on a regular basis to calculate usage and then reconcile that against the master meter bill, then subsequently print a statement with rent + water for the tenant to settle up each month.Good luck!

The downside of that is that we lose $30k that we could be putting into a down payment on the new house.
