Any advice regarding the pros and cons of these two cities?

As @Brett Synicky suggested, keep it simple, as a sole proprietorship.You are also not considering that you will have to pay $800 per year and per LLC to your greedy state.In short, get some professional advice instead of TikTok advice.

*Note* In NJ I will qualify for grants up to 22k to contribute at closing- In PA it would be closer to 10k (Money leaves my pocket at closing)I’m open to all ideas and advice as I’m going to get started this year, sooner rather than later.

I want to start renting as soon as I can so does anyone have advice

Instead of shelling out $60K for a $250K deal, maybe some of you can help me figure out (or give referrals) to title companies, etc, or give overall advice how to save me money from this enormous financial endeavor (closing the deal).Thanks!

I’d be happy to share more advice!
