Non-resident alien wanting to invest in USA
Hi BP,
I'm a Korean citizen living in Korea looking to invest in real estate in Washington State (not DC). It looks like forming an LLC is the first step to take, so one can open a bank account and transfer funds. I already have a bank account in the U.S. - is it still best to invest through an LLC rather than personally? If so, is it necessary to go through an attorney? I read through this webpage: http://www.wikihow.com/Form-an-LLC-in-Washington-S... and there's no mention of one. Would love to chat with those that have gone through this process!
