Buying with Partners - Posted by Kim

An LLC is better than a partnership from a legal perspective, but works the same from a tax perspective. It is probably simpler to do than to set up a corporation. I have partnerships and LLCs for all the properties that I own with others.
More importantly, get a written agreement with your partners, covering all the aspects of your arrangement. I can send you - or anyone else who emails me - a copy of one of my partnership agreements.

What legal structure (I am in New York) should I use to buy a rental property with two other partners: partnership, LLC, corporation or something else?

Thanks,

Kim

I’d put it into a land Trust - Posted by Billm

Once you learn the benefits of using a “PacTrust” land trust, you’ll never go back to relying only on partnerships, LLC’s, etc.
