I am wondering if buying and renting residential property in GA means the out of state LLC needs to register as a foreign LLC in GA. No other business will be conducted outside of renting to tenants in the state of GA.
answered on Aug 16, 2022
Simply owning the property would not require foreign entity registration, but if the LLC rents out the property it would be deemed to be conducting business in Georgia and would be required to register with the Georgia Secretary of State.

Only if the parties agree on the terms or the original purchase agreement permits the seller to do so.

First, if you have filed articles of organization it is an LLC and not a partnership. And only if the articles list the members (owners) of the company would you need to amend them. (Listing the members is not required and is uncommon.) If they do, you can find instructions on the Georgia... View More

I don't follow your posting and the situation is likely too complicated for an online forum like this anyway. You should retain a local real estate attorney to advise you. And just FYI, it is called a "quit claim deed."
they did not market the house nor did they locate the tenant. I did not sell the house to the tenant or anyone related to the tenant but to an investment company. Are they entitled to this commission payment? Area of question is Atlanta GA
answered on Jan 18, 2022
It depends on the terms of the agreement with the management company. Sometimes the agreement will state that they still earn a commission if the house sells within a certain time even if the agreement has been terminated. Have an attorney review the terms and advise of your options.
Is there a sample document you can provide please? I have submitted the document with all those details, Article One, Two and Three, but my application got rejected. Is Articles Of Amendment must? how should it look like? Is attaching Operating Agreement enough?
answered on Jan 10, 2022
Unless your current Articles of Organization list the members of the LLC you do not need to amend them. You just need to issue membership interests to the new members and have them sign a new operating agreement. However, the operating agreement should be drafted by an attorney since you will now...

With a few exceptions that likely don't apply here, oral agreements are enforceable as long as you can adequately prove the elements of the contract. As such, just based on the fact that the agreement was not written would not give you the right to void the agreement. Otherwise, your rights... View More
A contract was signed and broken. A new contract was made, and implemented with automatic payments, then I received a summons.
answered on Dec 8, 2021
Generally, you must file an answer with the court within 30 days of when the summons and complaint were officially served on you. As far as what to include in your answer, that is certainly too complicated for an online Q&A forum. Retain a litigation attorney and they will advise you on how... View More
