What’s Inside
Phase-by-Phase Tax Actions for Every MHP Buyer
Phase 1
Before the LOI
Entity setup decisions that must happen before you sign — holding company vs single LLC, S-Corp election timing, and why closing in the wrong name is expensive.
Phase 2
Under Contract
Purchase price allocation negotiation, Form 8594 mechanics, due diligence tax checklist (what to request from the seller), and when to commission the cost seg study.
Phase 3
30 Days Before Close
Final entity confirmation, POH title review, utility billing structure analysis, and making sure your bonus depreciation election is planned before day one.
Phase 4
At Closing
What to verify at the closing table — allocation agreement on the closing statement, POH titles transfer correctly, and the EIN on the right entity.
Phase 5
First 90 Days After
Set up bookkeeping, establish the chart of accounts with correct MHP structure, post opening depreciation schedules, and schedule your Q4 tax planning call.
