LLC in Maryland?

[Mike Fintel]

Hi,

I'm new to BP and to REI in general, even though I've had my home rented out for the last 4 years while living abroad. I'm looking to purchase a property or two in the Baltimore area, and was wondering if anyone had experience with LLC's.

Specifically, I just want to know if it makes sense.  I've read what I can find about them and their $300 yearly filing fee, as well as posts from other states, but if anyone has any personal advice about whether they make good sense in Maryland (or general advice, really), I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Mike
