What state do I open my LLC if investing out of state?Ca resident

Hi All,

I need some input here. I need to open an LLC so I can get a business loan, seems simple enough but I'm investing out of state. I live in California and currently have rentals in Indianapolis. Do I open my business in California, a state that is more friendly to small businesses like Nevada/Florida/Delaware or Indiana?

I'll take any input you have but I know I will ultimately have to run it by a lawyer, so if you're a lawyer that specializes in this stuff can we chat???

Thanks in advance.

If you file your LLC outside of CA you still have the privilege of paying $800/yr to the state of CA just for doing business in the state. Welcome to the Peoples Republic of California.
