I live in Oregon owning rental properties in AZ and thinking of buying in Texas. I currently have 1 LLC in Oregon with two members, my husband and I, what's the best LLC structure to address my situation?
Hi, this web site has been great and I have read all the answers, so I understand the benefits of using an LLC for real estate/rental properties, and I also understand you must register that LLC in whatever state you have the property. For multiple properties, I also understand you can have another "holding company LLC" to house all the separate properties/LLCs in your portfolio.
I live in New York state and am about to purchase a property in Texas, so I must register a Texas LLC to house the property. Since I am a sole owner of the LLC this probably isn't a big deal right now... but down the line, if I own multiple properties in different states, where would you recommend setting up the holding company LLC? I have read how certain states might have better anonymity features (New Mexico), certain states might have higher annual fees for reporting (California), etc.
So what would be the "best" State to set up the holding LLC (lowest fees, most features, etc.)? Any other things to avoid? Thanks in advance.

I'm looking into incorporating my CA rental property in NV b/c of the benefits NV corps offer (Private veil, minimul report, no state corp. tax, etc). Is it wise to incorporate in NV vs. CA? What other annual fees and tax reporting should I consider? Are the tax benefits worth the cost of incorporating? Any recommendations are strongly welcomed.
I am a NY resident looking to incorporate in NV or WY, I do not have an office in NY. I am on board for a long-term consulting gig in NJ. I have a couple of questions.
1- Would NY be able to claim Nexus just due to me being a corporate officer in a NV corp?
2- Would I be able to deduct mileage from my home in NY to drive to NJ, being that there is no corporate headquarters?
3- How would payroll work? Does NV corp need to withhold NY or NV taxes?
4- Does anything change if I would use WY instead of NV?
Thanks!

We are incorporated in the state of CA. We distribute fertilizer products directly to farmers in CA, but have a friend interested in selling our products to their customer base in MI.

I'm a USA photographer living in Italy.

Hi,
I'm looking at starting up a small sewing business online in the near future. This summer, though, I will be moving to Germany for 3 years. As a U.S. citizen is it possible to start an L.L.C. here in the state I am residing in, and run it from my address in Germany? Or would I need to get a GmbH? Also, would I need to pay both U.S. taxes and German taxes?
I appreciate any help you can give!
Sincerely,
Sarah D.
