I want there to be some separation between the LLC and its RE broker. I want to the broker to be contracted (i.e. replaceable) and to have bus. & legal responsibility only for the LLC's real estate functions and not its other business functions (e.g. office lease, utility bills).
Maybe I can accomplish this through the LLC's Operating Agreement and the language on TREC's form BLLLC-6 does not preclude that in its contemplation of a 'manager.' I have done real estate salesperson school and formed 1 LLC but this is confusing. Is there a way for a company to do apartment locating without using TREC BLLLC-6? How can an LLC be structured so the broker is a manager (TREC requirement), preferably not a member, and w/o responsibility for non-real estate related business functions?
