Moving property to an LLC

[Michelle Bright]

If I have a LLC that is registered in another state (Indiana) that I want to put a house in Chicago into. Do I need to apply for an Application for Admission to Transact Business to register the LLC in Illinois? Thanks for any help!!

@Michelle Bright You received solid advice from @Jeff Copeland. You technically can transfer the property into the LLC and I see it all the time. I would never allow my client to operate without filing to do business within a state. Without submitting yourself to the state jurisdiction, you are not afforded the protections of the state. An good eviction defense attorney could use that as grounds to try to throw out an otherwise valid eviction case.
