Do I sign as a LLC or my name?
Hi,
This might be a dumb question... I have a general question regarding buying a property using an LLC. I will be closing a cash offer deal with a wholeseller and this is my first time purchasing a property using my LLC. For the signature block, shall I sign using my personal name/signature or should I sign as the LLC? The property will be under the LLC name. I'm not sure if it really makes a difference since the LLC is tied to my name (sole proprietor).
I asked around and received mixed answers. The contract states that the Assignee/Buyer is the LLC.
Thanks in advance.

You will sign on behalf of the LLC. For example, if you are the manager of the LLC, your signature line would be as follows: "[Your Name], Manager of X LLLC". The LLC is ultimately listed but you are listed with a designation of why you have authority to sign (i.e. manager, owner, etc)
