It was a game changer for me when my traditional financing options dried up!

  I have been working on my first re-model for 4 months now. It is a two bedroom 750 sq/ft ranch that we converted into a three bedroom. We have had just a few projects along the way, including, new electric panel box...

We need to refurbish the tub and the renter is sensitive to smells also this is a 2 day drying and chemical smelling job. 

CA is a foreign country.. and I learned this as a HML there.. not nearly as cut and dry as being a lender in the US>. the judges in CA have wide latitude to cram down your rate.. give borrower more time etc etc..

Hi all,Here is my information pertaining to my question of which state is the best to start an LLC in:The business will be selling dried fruit.The location of preparation, packaging and shipping of the product is in California (at least initially, run from out of my house).I will be the only employee (most likely for several years anyway).Business will be conducted online only, selling to anyone living in the U.S., Canada or Mexico (initially limited to these county's due to shipping scales of economy, to be expanded elsewhere if I can get shipping costs down).I ask this question for the purposes of:Paying the lowest LLC start up and recurring costs related to the LLC.Having the least amount of paperwork required to start, and maintain the LLC.Having the most comprehensive protection for such a business (& of course, for me the individual owner of the LLC).Aside from the LLC, I will get a CA class a cottage food permit and of course pay CA taxes. 

I know that once that supply line of easy cash dries up, the market will correct in the areas that the Chinese have been investing in.
