    Hi guys!
    I am free to move to any state, so I am looking for the state which is the best for new authority. Like registration, taxes, insurance etc.
    Thank you so much

    8 states with no income tax
    "Everybody wants a lower tax bill. One way to accomplish that might be to live in a state with no income tax. At present, eight states—Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming—levy no state income tax."

    Thats my wife's whole level of consideration on where to live.

    I second dtibbit's idea
    Personally i think washington would be my favorite, except im a wuss and dont want to deal with the rockies in winter.

    South dakota wouldnt be bad except outgoing freight wouldnt be great for me, and its a lot drier than i prefer
     
    D.Tibbitt Thanks this.

    I’d base in Atlanta .
    It’s a major transportation hub .

    all the stars with no income tax make up for it with their property tax .

    Whatever state you go with, watch out if you file a corporate entity in another state, it would cause you to also file a corporate in the state you live in as a out of state foreign corporation. Make sure you make the correct decision.
