I know from previously the answer 0 and near to 0.... yet you speak as if your "the" expert of experts and act in ridiculous childish temper tantrum fashion when someone pierces the bs with reality and facts. 

Quote from @Kathryn Pierce: Quote from @Marnie Oshan: Hi Alex, That is correct, in the Seattle and Bellevue areas you are pretty much land constrained, so there is a ton of value in the land (in the right locations).

@Daniel Kong However, my cpa tells me that unless I keep a separate business bank account for each LLC, then there is no reason to have LLCs for asset protection as it will be very easy to "pierce the veil".

My tenant gets just about every handout there is, yet she still has money for tattoos, piercings, cell phone, wide screen TV, her daughter's room is filled with toys, house is very nicely decorated, etc.I have another tenant that gets temporary rental assistance.

You'll be able to find a duplex, South Pierce County, maybe Tacoma.

I don't know if the Pierce market can do the same- their prices tend to run higher than us (by default from being a short commute to Seattle). 

Hello Everyone,Does anyone have any recommendations for brokers they've worked with who have expertise in the Pierce County area?

@Elehue Pierce This is very easy to do!

Search on "piercing the veil".So...your questions:  an LLC doesn't come or go automatically.
