Thanks for reaching out @Riley Kuranishi, I'll PM you :)

Hi BP,

I'm a non-resident alien looking to invest in the States - namely the Seattle area to start off. I'm looking for some advice on whether forming an LLC is the best way to go about it rather than buying personally, since I already have a bank account in the States, and if so, what might be the best way to find a trustworthy attorney, accountant, real estate agent and partner (I know...lots of steps to take!) in the area. Would love to hear from foreign investors or those who have worked with foreign investors, particularly in the Seattle area. I've gone through the Foreigners Buying in the USA forum could only find bits and pieces of info, so thought I'd try asking here :)

Thanks @Chris Popov, may I ask how you went about finding an attorney to work with?

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!

Hi @Rob Terpilowski, I'd be happy to help!

@John Van Uytven Cool! Are you no longer in Korea?

@Riley Kuranishi @Tom Ott Thank you for the warm welcome!
