How do I start a Real Investing Company?

I want to start a real estate investing company. I want to purchase, flip, fix up. etc. Does this require licensing? I know people do this under their personal credit. I want to take advantage of the tax shelters and reduced personal liability.

thanks

  1. Licensing (actually registration) requirements depend on who you solicit money from.

    To reduce liability, form an LLC or a sub-s corp, but you will still have to personally guarantee any loans. You can have several LPs under the LLC. The real issues come about based on your capital structure, not the business you are in.
