Absolutely, for creditor protection purposes.
To incorporate one's business as an LLC, one would have to file for a licence to do so. The licence is around $50 to apply for and is good for one year. LLC stands for limited liability company.

If you liked the LLC there's no reason to switch; an LLC can have a single owner.

I think you are asking about the landlord being an LLC (limited liability corporation). It should be just the same for you on a day-to-day basis. A person will put the ownership of a rental property into a corporation to protect themselves during any possible lawsuit. It limits the possible award to the tenant to the equity in the building. Imagine you rent a house from a rich man, the house falls on your cat and you sue the landlord for $1 million. The jury likes cats, you win and the landlord is out $1M. So the man (now poorer) creates an LLC, putting $100K into it. The LLC buys a house for $500K, putting in its $100K and getting a mortgage for $400K. The LLC rents the house to a dog-owner. This house falls on the dog and the renter sues for $2M. This guy can only win $100K because that's all the LLC is worth. The tenant can't go after the man's remaining money.
When one incorporates their business they are forming a LLC, a limited liability corporation. By doing this, a business owners personal assets are protected from business debts or obligations.

Yes, a comma should be used after "LLC" when it is used in the middle of a sentence. For example: "XYZ Corporation, LLC, is headquartered in New York."
Incorporate in a different state. I think GA is under $50 to file an LLC.

For information on forming a Limited Liability Corporation, or LLC, can be found online at IRS, Incorporate, or Form LLC Direct. It is best to consult a professional before incorporating a business.
The operating agreement for your LLC should be filed and kept with your business records. It does not need to be filed with any government agency, but should be easily accessible for reference and review by all members of the LLC.
