LLC creation online or with Lawyer?

[Matt Orchulli]

so I'm looking at creating an LLC to buy and hold rentals. I was planning on going through a lawyer to set up instead of online. When I reached out to this real estate lawyer he simply ask me to send him a few simple pieces of info and $600 and it would be done. Now, this does not seem any different than creating one online, except online costs a whole lot cheaper. What do you all think? Thank you!

I would say it depends what you value your time at.

If its going to take 20 hours worth of your time, then its gonna cost you $30/hour.

If you could do something else within that time line that can produce you $40/hour, then i might be worth it to fork up the money.
