Entity Decisions and Entity Locations

[N/A N/A]

We are starting a new Real Estate investing venture,purchasing multifamily homes in a few various markets we have intially targeted, in various states.

As we prepare to get this going we are planning on starting a new LLC. My question: is there any advantage to starting this new LLC in Nevada or Delaware even though we probably are not going to purchase a property in either of these states? I reside in NJ and partner in Mass.

Also we were looking into the theory of starting a C-Corp in addition to the LLC, possibly in Nevada or Delaware and assuming our real estate investments turn a profit we could divert some of this income towards the C-Corp as a property management fee.

Any theories or experiences good or bad relating to some of this.

I'm not really sure. I wasn't the architect of the firm. My suspicion is that it may be an artifact of the well-established corporate case law for series LLCs there.
