What is the average cost of an LLC? Should I get one?

So I have 3 properties under my name. My primary residence and two investment homes. The two investment homes are worth around $350k and 250k. Is it recommended to get an LLC for two properties? What is the average cost in an LLC? I have a friend who paid $5000 to a law firm to create it for him and 2000/yr after that. That seems very high. Thoughts?

@Allen Lopez

I believe the fee for a DIY LLC formation in Florida is $160 and about $140/year for an annual filing. The fee you mentioned is very excessive. Now, whether or not an LLC is necessary in your case is probably a good conversation to have with an attorney.
