Transferring Property to LLC and What State is Best?

Hi BiggerPockets Community - My business partner and I are starting an LLC, and we want to transfer an existing asset property into the LLC, so the LLC can have a positive net worth and we can start the "credit rating" of the LLC on a positive note. However, we heard that in Delaware, there are no taxes for transferring property to LLCs; but we want to flip properties in PA. If we create a Delaware LLC, then I imagine we would have to still register to do business in PA and fill out "foreign entity" forms. We may also need two registered agents (one in DE and one in PA). We heard taxes are high for transferring property to an LLC in PA. Does anyone else have any experience in this? Does anyone flip properties in states that are different from their LLC state? Has anyone done this so there would be no taxes for property transfers? Thank you in advance for your help!
