The way my bookkeeper has it set up now is for my CPA more than it is for me.

I'm a CPA and full time real estate investor, have flipped hundreds of properties and own a rental portfolio (both short term and long term).

You should consult an attorney or CPA for your specific situation.ANONYMITY: When you create the LLC, your name is recorded on the documents and published on the Secretary of State's website for all to see.

I need to confirm with my CPA but that is what I have been told (note: I own them through an LLC).Previously with it being through the LLC is was taxed as earned income.

My  CPA strongly suggested that I set up my LLC in the Tennessee for tax purposes.

These are all things you will want to discuss with your attorney and CPA.

I'm going to a new CPA this Friday who has extensive real estate experience so I'm hoping he will be able to advise me on the best/easiest software to utilize. 

I see the BP list of CPA's but they are based all around the country.

In our case, we used our CPA, who creates SD 401(k) plans for his clients, though I’m sure he obtains them from a facilitator.You'll receive a disarmingly simple one-inch-thick three-ring binder containing your plan documents.
