Company name/ LLC

[Mike R.]

Since my first Big Bear cabin is going so well- I am looking to start a little vacation rental company. I'm trying to come up with a good name as well as wondering- do I need a separate LLC for this company? I already have an LLC for my production company- so it's totally unrelated. I'm guessing yes, but it's $800 a year to form an LLC in California so hoping to avoid that

My dad lives in Florida and does work with me- could I set up the LLC there for much cheaper--- Or because the homes are in California- I shouldn't mess with that?
