Setting up a search fund LLC

by a searcher from Mercer University

1 year ago

As a new solo / self funded searcher, when is the best time to setup your search fund LLC (assuming LLC is the appropriate structure)?

I have an existing LLC that I operate my consulting business out of, established in 2013. 

Do most recommend creating a new LLC for each separate acquisition?

Thanks!

I set up mine when I bought my business. No real point in incurring costs beforehand unless it’s to write off expenses.
