Parents have LLC with residential property.

They want to transfer the property to child's LLC.

Are parents protected by Lifetime Gift tax or would then taxed immediately?

    Are both LLCs "Disregarded Entities" (a Single Member LLC that has not made an election to be taxed as a corporation)?

    If not, the property is deemed to be distributed to the parents who then give it to the child and then the child contributes to their LLC.

    :Parents can use their lifetime estate and gift tax exemption for the gift. either way.

    The more I know the more I don’t know.

    Is it being used as a residence by a family member, or is it a rental?  Is there a mortgage on it?  Is the amount owed greater than the basis?

    Rental, owned outright. No mortgage.
