LLC formation-where and how to start

Andy Wilson
Posted

Hi BP,

I am trying to start LLC. There are lots of online companies and registered agents that help to form LLC. What would you recommend to form LLC from the scratch?

I don't even have a tenant yet but because I put lots of money and effort foe this property, I guess I can say I am changing sole proprietorship to LLC, right?

Any advice will be appreciated!

You can register the LLC yourself through the Secretary of State's website. However, there's not much liability protection unless you get the operating agreement and other docs in place, and treat the business like a business. Make the correct investment and talk to a lawyer and CPA first.
