Hey all - I am US-based. I already have one business but am looking to diversify. We travel to Florida quite a bit as it is and I am thinking about killing two birds with one stone and starting an LLC or something and purchasing a place with it. I want to walk before I run and take our time with it so as a worst-case, it would be somewhere we’re using ourselves and testing out with rentals along the way. Best case, we like doing it and expand it. I figure it gives us a vacation spot, tax advantages, and a business opportunity.

I am looking for general advice on the startup, best practices, pitfalls to avoid, etc. from anyone who has ventured down the same road. Thanks in advance.
