I just got back from vacation in the Carolinas.
I noticed the CPA signs that I saw all included CPA PA.
What does the PA stand for? I assume its a NC entity type?

Saw this guy’s sign in Calabash NC.

Appears to stand for Professional Association.

In NY we have either LLCs, PLLCs, or PC.

You were about 3 hrs away from where we live. I hope you enjoyed your stay at one of the best states in the nation 🙂

Do you live near the coast?

My eventual long term goal is to probably work another 10-12 years and by the time I'm 50 I'd like to move South to get away from the cold and snow.
I had rented a house in Little River SC.
I was driving through the beach communities of Ocean Isle Beach, Sunset Beach, and Cherry Grove Beach SC looking at the houses for sale.
I like the idea of finding the worst house in the best neighborhood, but even the tear down houses on the ocean/beach are asking half a million, so I guess I need to work a little harder.

My wife and I live in Winston-Salem, part of the Piedmont Triad area, but we frequently go to the beaches. I was also stationed at Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, NC so wasn't far away from the coastline.
