3 Business Structure Mistakes Real Estate Investors Make

December 24, 2018 by Marco Santarelli

Real Estate Investment LLCStarting A Real Estate Investment LLC

Why have an LLC?

There are mainly two reasons why you want any kind of business structure:

Pay less tax, and protect your assets. LLCs can be especially helpful if there are multiple owners of a property. When you create an LLC, you’ll create an operating agreement that outlines the rights and responsibilities of each member of the LLC.

This can help you seamlessly manage your rental property business and also protect each member of the LLC in case of legal trouble.

Before you jump into creating your LLCs for your real estate holdings, there are a few things to consider.  Do NOT make these three mistakes while creating an LLC for your real estate investment company.

Housing Trends And Predictions For 2019 and 2020

Is 2019 a good time to buy a home, sell a home, move up, or invest in real estate — or will you be better off parking your money elsewhere, whether that means buying a house in a different location or an investment in an entirely different industry?

Buying an Investment Property Under the New Tax Plan

November 7, 2018 by Marco Santarelli

Given the new proposed United States tax plan from the Trump administration, investing in real estate has some potential implications for a new investor. Most consider the changes extremely beneficial to first-time real estate investors in particular.

To cover the basics first, the existing tax structure allows for real estate investors to write-off all the expenses of owning and running a rental as those properties are considered a business operation. In addition, any interest on the mortgages for these investments along with any repair or management costs can be deducted pre-tax on the total income of the property so that the property owner is only taxed on the actual cash flow they’re earning from the investment.

With that in mind, many buyers want to know what they can do to help keep their earnest deposit safe. Here are 3 foolproof ways to protect your escrow deposit. If you follow this advice, you can rest easy knowing that your hard-earned money will stay where it belongs.

There is an entire political discussion around taxes: are they fair or unfair? Are you paying your fair share?

During the last election cycle, President Trump received a lot of attention when he said, “I pay no taxes.” But what most people don’t realize is that Trump is only doing exactly what the government wants him to do.

Congress NEEDS professional investors and entrepreneurs. They want to reward business owners because they know that by doing so they will create jobs, and housing. After all, that’s what creates a better economy.
