Start an LLC or quit claim property later for favorable terms?

I'm an out of state investor about to close my first property in Omaha, NE. My lender has asked if I want to purchase the property under my name or an LLC, which will determine the loan terms. From my understanding if I purchase in my personal name, I can get a residential loan as opposed to commercial. Does anyone have advice/experience closing in their personal name and quit claiming the property into an LLC shortly after? Is it higher risk and is there any reason I wouldn't want to do this?

This is a buy and hold property and I plan on staying in it for at least 3-5 years.  


Thanks,
Tom
