Why an SMLLC May Make Sense for Commercial Real Estate
When acquiring a commercial property, deciding what to buy is only part of the equation. There’s also the question of how you’ll own it.
For some investors and business owners, a single-member limited liability company (SMLLC) offers an interesting combination. It can establish a separate legal entity for the property while generally avoiding the need to create a separate federal income tax filing structure.
Those two ideas may sound contradictory, but they’re actually central to why SMLLCs are commonly considered for commercial real estate.
