vacancy, repairs, capex, management, any shared utilities, any groundskeeping not done by the tenants, any permits or registration fees, etc. 

Hi Fred,To be fully approved, you need to register the property specifically as a short-term rental in addition to the regular rental registration.

@Jane AbelYou can deduct the registration fee as continuing education. 

Once you've done that, you'll want to take your Articles of Organization from WY, your registration in FL, and your IRS SS-4 form, which is the letter you got when you got your EIN number when you first started.

We don't have the page setup yet for registration and information.

Foreign LLC Registration Dual State Requirements: If you form the LLC in your home state, you’ll likely need to register it as a foreign LLC in the state where the property is located.

If you do not plan to conduct business in NY then the bank may require you to fill out a foreign entity declaration (stating that you will not be conducting business in NY) and you can skip the registration. 

This means that you will probably need to pay registration and filing fees in at least 2 states if you don’t buy CA property as a CA resident.Be sure to tell your accountant that you may now need to file non-resident income tax returns in each state where you own property as well.

Specifically, rule 506(c) allows for any securities offering to be exempt from public filings, other than the actual registration handled under Form D, which is available through an SEC search.

Let's break down the pros and cons of each approach:Forming an LLC in the State Where the Property is Located:Pros:Compliance with Local Laws: Establishing an LLC in the state where the property is situated ensures compliance with local regulations and laws specific to that jurisdiction.Legal Clarity: It provides clear legal jurisdiction and may simplify any legal proceedings related to the property in that state.Perception: Operating with a local LLC may give tenants and local authorities confidence in your commitment to the community.Cons:Additional Costs: Setting up and maintaining an LLC in another state means incurring additional registration fees, taxes, and possibly hiring local legal counsel.Administrative Burden: Managing multiple LLCs across different states adds complexity to your administrative workload, including extra paperwork and compliance requirements.Tax Implications: You may face tax obligations in both the state where the property is located and your home state, potentially leading to double taxation or complexities in tax filings.Managing Through Home State LLC:Pros:Simplified Management: Handling all properties under a single LLC streamlines administrative tasks, reducing paperwork and simplifying tax filings.Cost Savings: Avoiding the need to establish multiple LLCs in different states saves on registration fees, legal expenses, and ongoing maintenance costs.Consistency: Uniformity in management practices and legal structures may contribute to efficiency and ease of operation across your real estate portfolio.Cons:Legal Exposure: Operating out-of-state properties under a home state LLC may expose your personal assets to the laws and liabilities of the other state, potentially diminishing the liability protection the LLC offers.Compliance Challenges: You'll need to ensure your home state LLC meets the legal requirements for conducting business in other states, which could involve additional filings and fees.Perception and Credibility: Some tenants or local stakeholders may prefer dealing with a landlord who has a local presence, which could impact your reputation or relationships in the community.Ultimately, the decision depends on your specific circumstances, risk tolerance, and long-term goals.
