I've been toying with the idea of adding an ISA to my sales business.

Even if you create a non-CA LLC, if you are managing the business from California, you will likely be deemed to be "doing business" in California and therefore likely subject to CA taxes.

This stands true for any/every investment segment in existence; stocks, ETF's, business ventures.

Hi @Nancy Cho happy to connect and talk business.

I used Zen Business to setup my first LLC and it was super easy.

You have every right to be outraged at the offending party and that's the tenant.Stay focused on what matters and that is getting back in business. 

A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

There are people who have an entire business helping you set up and design a STR relatively quickly (3-7 days) depending on size of home and complexity but you are going to be paying a bit of a premium but you do save on the headache.

It's with the entry level SFH turn key business model as a whole.

If we hadn’t been fraudulently lead to believe it was a cash deal, we would have not said it was a cash deal and I wouldn't be out $10,000 of EM and a realtor threatening to sue me for their lost commission.I have 25 years in this business and have never experienced the out in out lies this company has continuously regurgitated to us, knowing all along the deal wasn’t going to go thru.
