How do I get a real estate investment business in Crossville, TN licensed and registered?

Sonya wrote: “I buy and invest in real estate properties in the US to repair and sell to individual home buyers. Sometimes I search for properties to wholesale to others who will renovate and sell. I also provide consulting services related to real estate investing.”

Hi Sonya, Flipn-It sounds like a promising venture. Turning a tired house into a bright, move-in-ready home is satisfying work, and a smart purchase can pay off handsomely at resale. In this answer you will find the business structure, the tax registrations, and the local and industry licenses for Flipn-It, plus a short recap at the end.

Flipping homes you own doesn't require a real estate license, but wholesaling deals in Tennessee is regulated, so structure each deal carefully. Renovations may require a contractor license for larger projects. An LLC for each property is common.

What Flipn-It needs

  1. LLC (business structure) – Forming an LLC puts a legal wall between the business and your personal assets. A contractor injured on a job site might try to reach the owner, and holding each property in an LLC limits what is exposed.
  2. DBA (doing business as) registration – If you operate as a sole proprietor, or under a name different from your LLC's exact legal name, registering "Flipn-It" lets you use it on signs, invoices, and your business bank account.
  3. EIN (federal tax ID number) – Think of the EIN as a Social Security number for the business: banks, suppliers, and clients who send you tax forms will all ask for it.
  4. Business license – Most places require a local business license to operate, including home-based businesses. Check the rules where Flipn-It will operate in Crossville, and ask about home occupation and zoning rules if you work from home.
  5. Contractor license for renovation work – If you perform or supervise repairs yourself rather than hiring licensed trades, many states require a contractor license above certain project sizes.
  6. Real estate license when representing others – Buying and selling your own properties usually needs no license, but brokering deals for other people does.

By the numbers: Banks, insurers, and tax forms will ask for your industry code. For a real estate investment business it is NAICS 531390 (Other Activities Related to Real Estate). That makes 6 items on your list.

Tip: Keep every receipt and contractor invoice organized by property; it matters for taxes and for proving improvements at sale.

To recap: Flipn-It in Crossville, TN needs an LLC, a DBA, an EIN, a business license, contractor license for renovation work, and real estate license when representing others. Handle these early and the business starts on solid ground.

Real Estate

When it comes to structuring real estate investments, especially when multiple properties are involved, investors commonly consider various legal entities to provide a combination of liability protection, operational efficiency, and tax advantages. One of those entities is the Series LLC. Here's a breakdown:

Series LLC (Limited Liability Company): A Series LLC is a relatively newer form of LLC available in some U.S. states that allows for the creation of multiple "series" or "cells" under one main LLC. Each series operates like its own separate entity with distinct assets, members, and operations. Key features include:

Liability Protection: Each series within the Series LLC can protect its assets from the liabilities of the other series. This is beneficial if you own multiple properties since a lawsuit or liability from one property won't affect the assets of the other properties in separate series.

Cost Efficiency: In many states, the Series LLC is cost-efficient because you only have to pay one filing fee for the main LLC, rather than individual filing fees for each property if they were each under separate traditional LLCs.

Operational Flexibility: Each series can have its own management structure, members, and operating agreement.

Tax Implications: Taxation can be complex, and the IRS does not have definitive guidance on Series LLCs as of my last update in September 2021. Always consult a tax professional when considering the use of a Series LLC for real estate investments.

However, there are some considerations:

Limited Recognition: Not all states recognize the Series LLC. If you own property in a state that does not recognize this structure, you might not benefit from the liability protections it offers.

Interstate Operations: If you're doing business or owning properties in multiple states, understanding how each state treats the Series LLC becomes essential. Registration, liability protection, and taxation could get complicated.

Complexity: While a Series LLC might seem like an efficient solution, it can get complex in terms of management, accounting, and ensuring that each series is truly separate from the others.

Emerging Jurisprudence: Given that Series LLCs are relatively new, there is limited case law on how they will be treated in legal disputes, especially across state lines. Alternatives to Series LLC:

Traditional LLC: Each property is held by a separate LLC. This provides clear liability protection but can be costlier and requires multiple filings.

Holding Company Structure: A main "holding" LLC owns multiple subsidiary LLCs, each holding a separate property.

Limited Partnership (LP) or Limited Liability Partnership (LLP): These entities can also provide liability protection and have their own unique advantages and tax implications.

Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT): More suited for large-scale investments, a REIT allows multiple investors to pool resources to invest in real estate.

Seller's Permit



Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID. However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a business tax ID number.
However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting a federal tax ID number.

Also note that even using your first and last name may not help you avoid filing a DBA if the name has a suffix such as "& sons" etc.



If you do form an Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Real Estate business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba), that insurs that you don't have personal liability for debts and civile liabililty arising from your business dealings and you will not have to record the Crossville business name. Instead of just registering your Cumberland County assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in Tennessee or form an TN LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes required documents such as bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC). .

Starting a Real Estate Service Based Business
A real estate business is a business entity that deals with the buying, selling, management, or investment of real estate properties.

Real estate refers to real or physical property and can include land, buildings, air rights above the land, and underground rights below the land.

Residential real estate is the most common type of estate and is the asset class that most people are familiar with.

The most common real estate business activity is leasing commercial real estate properties to tenants for conducting income-generating activities. This can include everything from a single storefront to a huge shopping center.


Q: Fictitious Business Name Publishing Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate Earth Lot and Fire Real Estate
A: However, it is usually a general Business License that you need. If you also use a trade name such as "Earth Lot and Fire Real Estate," doing business as (DBA), or you are partnership, to do business (a name other than your full legal name), you also need a DBA doing business as certificate filing.

Whether you are a real estate broker, agent, salesperson, appraiser, developer, or loan officer, you will first need to select the service business structure among a sole proprietor, a partnership, Corporation or LLC.
Regardless of which one you choose, you will need a general Business License. Note that, very rarely, you will need a special license for your type of business.
Cases that you might need a special state issued license is if you are a real estate broker, or agent, in which case, you will need a real estate license certificate from the state.
However, it is usually a general Business License that you need. If you also use a trade name such as "Your Real Estate Service Provider Experts," doing business as (DBA), or you are partnership, to do business (a name other than your full legal name), you also need a DBA doing business as certificate filing.
If you buy wholesale, or will sell any type of merchandise or service's related item, for instance, a mechanic provides parts that are taxable and need a separate listing on the invoice issued, in small or large amounts, you will need a Seller's Permit also called a resale license or state ID.
If you decide to hire help/employees to help you provide the services, you will need a federal tax ID number and a state employer number.
You also need a federal tax ID if you are a partnership, an independent contractor, a corporation or an LLC.
A lot of services businesses are independent contractors, so it will not hurt if you have a federal tax ID because at any rate, you will have to use it as a business ID.
You can also obtain a federal tax ID as a sole proprietor and use it as a business tax ID.
Finally, even services related businesses that are sole owner/proprietors can form an LLC or incorporate, in which case, they will not need to file a DBA.

Mr. Monopoly's Property Management

Mr. Monopoly wanted to start a property management company but was boggled by the paperwork. "Egad! These license requirements are more confounding than going to jail!" Suddenly Rich Uncle Pennybags popped up waving money bags. "Fret not good sir! I can explain it clear as the morning bell:"
  • Form LLC for legal protections and tax benefits
  • File a striking DBA name like "Monopoly Properties"
  • Obtain seller's permit, tax IDs, business license
  • Require real estate broker license
  • Get bonded and insured
  • Vet and oversee hiring of contractors
  • Renew licenses, bonds, insurance annually
"Mind my advice, and your properties will multiply like houses on Marvin Gardens!" Pennybags declared. "Thank you kind sir! Now licensing is no mystery," Monopoly smiled. And with Pennybags' wise words, Monopoly's property management empire thrived mightily.

LLC (Limited Liability Company) FAQs:


Q: Would an LLC be better than filing a fictitious business name?

A: If you desire more business prestige for market presence you may want to set up an LLC. E.g. the fictitious business name (DBA) is . deSonyatch Flipn-ItCo. this name as well as any other name is an assumed business name and it must be recorded as a DBA Doing Business As name which also requires a fee to be recorded.

Just recording an assumed business name does nothing to keep the name exclusive nor does it avoid personal liability for the business owners. Only setting up a limited liability company (LLC) will protect the name at the state level and also protect the owners of personal liability. Since registering an assumed business name does not protect anything and it requires a fee -- which is almost as high as setting up a limited liability company (LLC) fee -- it is better set up a limited liability company (LLC) for about the same fee and enjoy the protection of a corporate entity.

So for example if an employee is injured on business premises the employee can sue you personally unless you are an limited liability company (LLC) in which case the employee can only sue the corporation.

A limited liability company (LLC) affords more prestige and it helps you obtain business loans.

Q: Can I apply by phone and set up a limited liability company (LLC)?.
A: You can apply by phone but the best way is to just fill out our online limited liability company (LLC) form.

Q: I already have a tax ID as a sole proprietor can I use it for the LLC I am forming now?
A: Forming a new type of entity of a business constitutes change of status for that business and that requires you to get new licenses and tax IDs under your name.

Q: Do I need a limited liability company (LLC) if I am a small business and sell my products or service solely over the internet?
A: It is your choice to either be a sole proprietor of set up an LLC.

Q: If I order a limited liability company (LLC) online how long will it take before I receive it?
A: Normally we will have to wait for a corporate certificate if you are a corporation othewise we normally obtain it on the same day you order it.

Q: Do I need to obtain a federal or state tax ID number before forming a limited liability company (LLC) or getting other licenses?
A:

Q: What is a DUNS Number?
A: Dun & Bradstreet is a business credit rating company and they use your info to inform lenders about how credit worthy you are.

Q: Do I need to pay sales tax to the state as an LLC?
A: Paying sales tax depends on your state. For example in Oregon you dont need to pay sales tax but you still need a resale certificate to buy from other states wholesale products.
