We lay out a simple way to structure a multi-location painting business so one branch’s problems do not take down the rest. We explain why a holding company with separate child LLCs can keep taxes cleaner, protect equity, and reduce admin as you scale.
• the three core questions owners ask when adding locations
• why most “tax problems” start as structure problems
• parent holding company taxed as an S-corp with child LLCs underneath
• profits flowing up to one tax return through disregarded entities
• liability separation and what it does and does not protect
• equity options for incentivizing a local general manager
• when a second location may not need its own LLC yet
• how to keep entities separate with clean books and bank accounts
• multi-state compliance, registrations, payroll, workers’ comp, and nexus
• why real estate and operating companies often should be separate
