@Kenneth Joseph Perfido If you’ve moved to a new state and plan to conduct business there, you generally have two options: register your existing LLC as a foreign LLC in the new state or form a new LLC in the new state.

lol, bro, he's been involved in an attempted murder twice in the last 6 months.

I am not sure what type of real estate investing you're considering, but it sounds like, with your family and busy job, you won't have a lot of time to be hands-on or personally involved. 

I sold my precious business for 1.5M seller carry.

Worked out nicely for all involved. 

Have recently started a renovation company with a friend, both of us successful business owners and talented in the trades.

Investing in single-family residence fix-and-flip projects in New York involves purchasing distressed or undervalued single-family homes, renovating them, and selling them at a profit.

I figure this would be really helpful for anyone in our business.

and if you're busy with your full time job it's even harder.

I'm at a stage where I really just want to get involved and start buying properties.
