I am forming an LLC for rental property but I do not want to use the rental address because I don't want any mail to go there, nor do I want to use my home address. I would like to get a P.O. box but I am in the chicken-egg problem. Am I making this too complicated?
What you need is a Registered Agent. In most states LLCs are required to have a registered agent. This is the address that goes on public record with the Secretary of State's office as authorized to accept service of process on behalf of the LLC. This is also the address where any important documents from the state are received. To see how we can help you, visit our Registered Agent Services page.
