## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 3 of the 7 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 4 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 4 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 2 figures, never sentences; 31 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per jurisdiction: the formation fee, the recurring annual fee or franchise tax, the filing deadline and the tax treatment of rental income held personally versus through a company - joined into the figure the buyer wants and nobody assembles: the first-year and steady-state cost of holding one rental in an LLC or limited company, by state and by country, beside the tax difference that is supposed to justify it.
