If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Just like other issues, there is not a single answer for all situations. What is good for one may not be the correct answer for another. The easiest way to protect assets is to buy each property in the name of a different corporation. Only that corporation would then be responsible for the liabilities of that property. Of course, proper insurance is also a must to safeguard your investment.

You should meet with an attorney who can provide various solutions to your asset protection questions. Let that attorney guide you in taking the necessary steps to ensure your financial safety.
