My two brothers and I are looking to invest in rental property in Ohio. Need a few advice. We found a property we want to start with an grow from there. What's the best way to start out with a LLC or under our names? An what is the process of getting a LLC?
@Remington Lyman hopefully we can expand that way. So, I found a duplex around 70k and we was discussing If we should start a LLC or a mortgage. It's 3 of us. Two of us is local and one is active in the Navy. What you suggest is the best way to go about doing this? An of course we will want to get another house later down the line.
An LLC may be your best bet with a really good operating agreement. As Remington said I would recommend talking to an attorney to get proper advice about this though.

@Tj Quinn A lot will depend on the type of loan you are getting. I would recommend reaching out to your lender and ask them whether you can purchase the property in your name or an LLC.
Which market in Ohio are you looking at? I recommend Columbus, Ohio,
@Remington Lyman we was looking in the Akron area and wanted more of duplexes. Does Columbus have a lot to offer? I really ain’t to familiar with Columbus and don’t know the good and bad parts. We want to start off with more of a turnkey property.

@Tj Quinn Columbus, Ohio does have a lot to offer. I am familiar with Akron as I used to travel to the university there to compete against their rifle team. I competed for The Ohio State University.
You will probably find better cash flow in Akron vs Columbus.
