Buy rental property via LLC or in own name w/ umbrella insurance
I would like to buy multiple SFH investment rental properties (think 100+). I've read mixed/conflicting advice on here about whether it's more beneficial to buy each one via LLC or would buying under my own name and supplementing that with a hefty umbrella insurance policy? The reason I'm thinking the latter is because I can get better financing terms (85% LTV) and deal w/ less complexity/forms to file. My goal is to build a portfolio and either perpetually refi the properties or sale all of them via 1031 and flip to 1 commercial property. This is in PA if that matters.
I know this topic has been asked numerous times but would love to hear any updated/specific thoughts.
