Finance with LLC or conventional using my name?
Currently, my husband and I own a few investments houses and always looking for the next deal to buy and hold. Currently, I have a good paying W2 job and we have an LLC that we've used on one of our properties. I've heard that financing using the LLC frees up our personal credit, but financing with our own names as a conventional loan give us a lower interest rate.
What is the best strategy? How have other investors used their LLC or personal credit to finance or refinance properties?
