LLC?

I notice that just about everyone signs their posts here with an LLC. I don't know much about being LLC'd. Should I do that prior to flipping my first house or doing my first wholesale deal? If so, why? Is it a liability thing or a tax thing? How does the process work and costs involved? Thanks!

David

Creating a business entity is both for asset protection and tax advantages. There are a lot of posts (especially recently) here on BP about LLCs and other business entities and why they are advantageous (and when they are not).
