Dissolving Delaware LLC with Vehicle Asset & Seeking CPA for Retail and Real Estate Ventures

Asked onWednesday, January 24, 2024 by Andrey

Hello. I am considering dissolving a Delaware-registered LLC, currently while residing in Texas. This LLC owns a vehicle valued at approximately $135,000, which was purchased outright with cash contributed to the company's capital. The vehicle has been used for personal purposes, and since the company hasn't initiated any commercial activities, no tax deductions have been claimed for this asset. Additionally, I'm looking for a CPA who can manage the financial aspects of my existing retail sales company, specializing in automotive wheels, and a future real estate investment business. I need a professional with expertise in both retail operations and real estate investments. For the dissolution of the LLC, I would appreciate insights on: Tax implications of dissolving a Delaware LLC in Texas, especially when it owns a high-value asset like a vehicle bought with contributed capital. Required steps for transferring the vehicle's ownership from the LLC to an individual. Any potential sales tax or other tax liabilities, beyond the costs related to the dissolution and asset transfer. I welcome advice on the LLC dissolution and interest from CPAs with relevant experience in the retail and real estate sectors. Thank you in advance.

4-way LLC profit sharing involving 2 members and 2 "major contributors"

Asked onMonday, January 22, 2024 by Frederic

How do I legally handle 4-way profit sharing involving 2 members and 2 "major contributors." The company is a Texas multi-member LLC with 2 managing members (50% ownership each) and 2 individuals who will help out as they are able but don't want the obligations and responsbilities of membership. I'm hoping for revenue to be divided as follows: 20% in a tax account, 30% for operations, and 50% as a distribution split equally between the members and major contributors (25%-25%-25%-25%).

Europeans LLC Propsal for a 50/50 partnership

Asked onMonday, January 22, 2024 by Denis

Hi wanted to open a company with a friend of mine from overseas. We came to the conclusion WY is propably the best place, wanted to check with people here before consulting an accountant.

Are we allowed to invest (trading account) and buy real estate as EU citizens via the Real estate LLC? 4. Is it only reserved for US citizens / equivalents that they can refinance the properties and pull out cash in this way?  5. Additionally, we are contemplating introducing a holding company, wherein it would hold 50% of the LLC and 100% of the real estate company for each of us + to protect our assets separately. 6. Is this a feasible / legal structure and how much would we need in revenue before this would be beneficial? 7. Additionally, how much would it cost on an annual basis to file the taxes for the whole of the above structure (if feasibl
