love the video, one correction. Fannie and Freddie discount the rev from rentals when you are applying for a mortgage loan if you don't have a return done showing actual expenses. if you do they will go off of what you told the IRS that you netted. the discounting is only done when you have had a property for a few months and are trying to offset its carrying cost with a new lease and you have not had to file it on a return just yet.

Thank you so much for these videos - it's so great to find someone speaking this language. If you have active separate single-member LLC's operating as restaurants, what is the best way to transfer ownership of those LLC's to a new WY LLC? And how does that affect existing commercial leases with said LLC's?

@ClintCoons

It can be done but first you need to discuss with a strategist how the LLC is set up from a tax standpoint and wether the operating agreement permits such a transfer. The lease is probably not an issue but it would be wise to review it as well.

I attended your webinar and am very interested in learning more about protecting my property from liens and judgements and also learn about a Residence Trust.

Having your LLC owned by an irrevocable trust in Saint Kitts and Nevis or the Cook Islands with a hired trustee is a great way to protect your personal asserts from being pierced.

How would I pay myself in a structure with a single-member holding LLC (S-Corp) that owns my operating LLC, of which I’m the only owner and employee? How can this be done without piercing the corporate veil and losing asset protection, while still seeing the tax benefits of an S-Corp? Which LLC would handle payroll and how would dividends be distributed? Thanks!

What is the backup plan for the corporate transparency act since the wy llc will be forced to report to the Feds and that will trickle to banks and local law enforcement…. Both of which are easily farmable by stalkers and ex-girlfriends etc..

1:25 how i think of it is, the Holding company is the savings account for the profits made from individual business. And to protect that savings account, Wyoming is a good place for it's anonymous structure. It is VERY IMPORTANT that this business does NOT do any customer transactions, only business to business and NOT suppliers, have a LLC that does operations. I am looking forward to your video (if not yet) on Corporate Transparency Act.

@LAKitchen Doing business in California is useless. It's a great money pit. I did the math on doing business in NYC. Starting and growing it. I saw how I would be raped with taxes. I started looking around and found out that other states had lower taxes and lower costs. I reran the numbers and decided to exit New York before the 180 days in the year were reached. California is way worse than NY. The state of NY makes it very easy to start a business, because they want you to pay sweet taxes. That was sufferable before the no cash bail law went into effect. Now it doesn't matter because your high taxes cannot get you protection. California makes it hard and expensive to setup shop, taxes you to death, and offers no protection. In fact, they have practically legalized crime. In that scenario, it's not worth it to setup shop there. I understand that if you're born and raised there, that you don't want to leave. Good luck.

Wyoming LLC annual fees are very cheap. I live here and have established an LLC, and the fees are not bad at all.

At the time of this video (August 2023), WY charges $100/year for an LLC. You will also need a registered agent which typically is about $50/year.

Are the WY LLC’s fees tax deductible? They arguably have no business purpose because that LLC doesn’t conduct a business.

Except because of the new law that passed in January 2024 you have to register EVERY partner/shadow partner/or anyone that has major control of the LLC with FINCEN so your information is public records, so if you get sued and you have assets, they can force it to the holding company and writ those accounts.

Thanks for replying to this!!

Can a WY holding company own an S-Corp? If so, I'm wondering - how do you add the holding company on the S-Corp's Articles of Incorporation (assuming the holding company owns 100% shares of the S-Corp)? because typically it's the directors and officers that are listed. What title do you give the holding company (by title I mean Director, Officer, Secretary etc...which I don't think you can use for a holding company) In my state (FL) there is also the option - Other, and I'm thinking I can use that to designate the holding company as a shareholder. Note: the S-Corp is solely owned by me, but I want to transfer interest/ownership to my holding company. Looking forward to your reply.

Yes provided your WY LLC is set up as a disregarded entity.

Would structuring as a c-corp work as well if you don't have a partner?

Yes, DE offers similar benefits.

Why wouldn`t you set up an off shore LLC like a Nevis LLC. It seems to have better privacy protections than US based LLC's ?

Offshore draws more scrutiny but it does have its advantages.

@bronzeage_222

Absolutely but you could put your Wyoming LLC inside of the offshore LLC and then you get two layers between you and any other LLC’s sitting inside of the Wyoming LLC. and it probably depends on how much you have to protect.

Isn't FINCEN ending the privacy/aninoumousity of all the LLCs all around the US ? anybody's FINCEN info can be reached with a simple court order no? as of jan,2024 all states require filing FINCEN for all shareholders of the company. Am I wrong?
