Do I Need an Office to start out

[Ellen Kuzniar]

Hello BP Family:

I am pursuing starting my RE Business early 2015.  Looking at Wholesaling to begin. Someone has told me that I need to have an actual business address, that I cannot use my home address as my business address.  They also said not to use the words such as Real Estate or Investor in my company name as those names get a poorer rating when your company gets ranked in what type of business you have.   I understand I need to get a D & B number  and an EIN number.  Would just like some opinions please.  Perhaps there are posts about this already, but I could not locate them.  Thanks for any feedback.
