A new LLC exists and its paperwork doesn't yet.
In Rhodes: Entities → New Entity
Four fields are required:
- Name — the full legal name.
- Short name — what you'll call it in lists and chat. Use letters, numbers and hyphens only (no spaces), up to 30 characters, for example 44H or Bramble-Hollow.
- Type — Holding Company, Investment Fund, Operating Company, Real Estate, Special Purpose, Management Company, Trust, Person, or Other.
- Formation state. For a Person, this field is Residence State and is optional.
Legal structure — LLC, Corporation, Limited Partnership, Grantor Trust, Non-Grantor Trust, General Partnership, Other — is optional and can wait for the formation documents.
Most of the time you don't need this page. Upload the certificate of formation and Rhodes creates the entity with its details already filled in, marked Pending your confirmation until you confirm it — or just say "create a Delaware LLC called Bramble Hollow Holdings" in chat, which is quicker than the form and asks you to approve before it writes.
