Limited liability companies (LLC’s) are now the ownership entity of choice for most commercial real estate deals. Their advent has greatly simplified the process of choosing the best real estate ownership entity for a given situation. Tax issues, limiting the personal liability of clients, asset protection, and exit strategies are usually the predominant considerations when forming a legal entity to own or manage real estate - learn of the many advantages that the LLC format offers in these areas for real estate ventures.

But the LLC is not the only, or sometimes, the best entity option - the speakers also touch on when not using an LLC may be to your client’s advantage.
