Important Steps after buying an property???

[Raj Kumar]

I just signed an offer(foreclosure) for a 9000 Sq ft office/warehouse bldg in Myrtle beach, SC and I live in the DC suburb. I am a newbie and just pulled the trigger. I am trying to figure out the next steps(I do have the cash to close on the property).

1) Form an LLC in South Carolina -
a) do i do it myself or with an attorney?
b) Can I have mailing address of the company to be my DC address, so all correspondence come to me?

2) Finish the closing (around Aug 15th)
a)is it better to have my own closing agent or to do it with the auction company's closing agent?

3) Get Liability Insurance

4) Hire a property management company

I know I am missing many steps, Please chime in... Also if any of you know a good and reasonable real estate lawyer and a property management company in Myrtle beach, SC

Thanks in advance for all your help.
