.: Hello everybody, specifically asking for the Fresno, CA area. 

Talk to your attorney, and if you dont have one, get one - as @Ken M. said, this is highly specific to the state and the circumstances.

The reason I ask is if you're starting a "non-real estate" business, I'd recommend NOT using that business to buy any properties but use a real estate specific LLC to acquire your properties.

@Dallas Morioka what specific help are you looking for? 

I find that it's almost a one stop shop in that I can use it for my business checking and savings accounts, bookkeeping, for rent collection, I can issue virtual credit card, I can create all the financial reports I need to run my real estate business and prepare for tax filing and through their partners I can vet my tenants, develop state-specific leases and more.
