How to Buy a Business Property

Despite the decline in residential real estate, the demand for commercial real estate has remained fairly strong. But it will cost you significantly less per square foot to buy business property than to lease it. If you buy it you can set up an LLC. to hold the property, pay rent to the LLC at the going rate, write off the maintenance costs and mortgage interest, depreciate the property and break even with the LLC. or possibly even have a loss. The tax benefits can be significant on your personal tax return. An LLC is a Limited Liability Company, popular because of the simplicity. The profits or losses flow directly to the owner's personal tax return, and the owner has liability protection (read more at irs.gov: Limited Liability Company, LLC).
