If your corporation will be deemed to operate in the state you live in, which it might, then it'll need to register there as well as its home state. The least hassle path is often to make the corporate home the same as your home, then you don't have to register in two different states, and you don't need to pay a registered agent, because you can do that, etc.

It's certainly a different question if you're likely to get funding, but it's not hard for a skilled attorney to re-incorporate your business as a Delaware corp if that's a condition of financing, just takes a bit of time to do the work, and maybe not much more time than incorporating in Delaware to begin with, and delaying hassle that you might be able to avoid is better than paying it upfront.
