Should i create a new LLC,or pay the reinstatement fee on SUNBIZ?
Guys i need help here. I formed a LLC company in 2015 and i let it automatically dissolve last year(2017) by not filing an annual statement on Sunbiz.org. i did it on purpose because i was planning to sell my only rental home and figured i wouldn't do more investing.
Guys, i sold a rental property this year, and i want to invest in commercial and residential properties. The '"name" of the LLC, i had my rental property under was administratively dissolved . I let it dissolve in 2017 because i didn't think there was a future for the company at the time .Also the name of the LLC is not suitable for my new future strategy. I want the name of my future LLC to include investments. So should i
A) pay the reinstatment fee, past due annual fees and make an amendment to the name of the llc under the current FEID on Sunbiz
or
should i just form a new LLC and obtain a new federal employment identification number . It will be cheaper on Sunbiz , but does the IRS allow me to change the name of a company and still use the same FEID number.
I also have to consider than i help the property for less than 3 years and i closed on it last week. I made 80k profit so if i were to create a new LLC can i still do a 1031 like kind exchange ?
