Mortgages, LLC's & warranty Deeds

[N/A N/A]

Hello All,

I am acquiring an investment property from a builder and I wanted to have it owned by my recently created LLC. However, I just learned that its mortgage company doesn't do mortgages to LLC's, not even with personal guarantee.

I read in another forum that a way around this is to acquire it under one's name and then do a warranty deed to transfer ownership to the LLC.

Please help me with the following questions:
1. Does it require approval from the mortgage company to do the warranty deed?
2. How complex is it do it? Do I need a lawyer?

Thanks,

Edgar Zuniga
