Quote from @Guillaume Vidallet: Hello,I will be closing on my first investment property in a few weeks in Buffalo NY and looking to acquire more in 2025 in different states (ohio, PA, Michigan), being a Florida resident, which state should I create my LLC in?

Everyone else is typically just happy to have something there for them.I'm sure others have differing opinions but this has worked great for me.

I realize different markets/ schools but I’d imagine they’re all looking at the same time.

The lender has told me that as the guarantor on the company this would still affect me personally so it's not much different at this point if we purchase under me personally or under the entity.

I am keeping the front facade the same, so only the rear and side of the building will look different.

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

You're free to wait 30+ years for them to die and hope their offspring feel different but global warming is quickly turning that desert into mars, so good luck getting anybody to move there.

If you want to invest in Buffalo I'm looking to 1031 my way into a different state.   

If you would take a different route than the ones I’m going to list below please let me know.

Some areas may have a different term for this.
