Option Contract- Purchase as individual or Business?

[Brandi Paul]

Hello,

After some months of research and preparation we are ready to try to get an offer in place for a short sale flip and had a question about the Option to Purchase Contract. I am not sure if there is a simple answer to this question or just Pros and Cons of each, but here goes:
Is it best to put the investor's name as the buyer or the investor's business (i.e. in LLC or Corp)?

I am not sure if using one vs the other would make any difference in the eyes if the seller's Lender in terms ease of the deal, acceptance, etc.

I appreciate any insight that may be given.

Thank you!
Brandi

I use a state specific contract in California because the option contract tends to create confusion with Brokers there. I use an addendum which essentially turns the REALTOR approved contract into an option contract. It has has the state mandated disclosures to the seller as well.
