Hey there, I am a newbie investor in New York. I am interested in buying rental properties and doing some flips but not many initially. What is the best entity to set up an LLC or a S corp? Or should I buy a few units first and then set up an entity? I am mainly worried about how the additional income is to be reported and how to safe gaurd any property I obtain from someone with foul intentions. Any advice would be helpful.
Thank You, Howard the youngone

Thank You John. I did read the articles and forums and it helped very much. I decided however that right know I will wait until I have a couple of properties under my belt before starting my LLC. Thanks a lot
