Do You Have the Right Corporate Structure with Shawn Quigg

Before the episode, most investors ask what property to buy. As they grow, the better question becomes how should I own it? In this episode, Michael Ponte sits down with real estate and corporate lawyer Shawn Quigg to unpack one of the most overlooked parts of building a successful real estate business: your corporate structure. 

They discuss when it actually makes sense to incorporate, the advantages and drawbacks of owning property personally versus through a corporation, and what changes when you start investing with joint venture partners. Whether you're buying your first rental or managing a growing portfolio, this conversation will help you better understand how to protect your assets and build a legal structure that supports your long-term goals.

In this episode, you'll learn:

•  When it makes sense to incorporate—and when it doesn't. 
•  The pros and cons of owning real estate personally versus through a corporation. 
•  Signs that your current structure may no longer fit your growing portfolio. 
•  What every joint venture partnership should have in writing. 
•  How to choose a corporate structure that fits your investing strategy, not someone else's. 

If you're treating your real estate investing like a business, this episode is packed with practical insights to help you build the right foundation before your portfolio grows even bigger.
