When should I think about starting to create my entity and my LLC? Before I start my investing journey or during when I have a couple deals under my belt?

 @Mysonne Johnson I think you should start your LLC before purchasing your first property. Your personal assets are protected from any issues that could arise from investing in real estate. You can separate and protect each of your rental properties. Also, you will get the benefit of pass-through taxation, so your income is not taxed twice.

Good luck!
