Need Legal Advice!.

[Andrea Vranken]

I am a fairly experienced real estate owner buying and holding properties for rental income and I am actively involved in the day-to-day management. These properties are in New Jersey, Virginia, and Florida. Titles are held in individual LLCs but I am still legally required to guarantee their mortgages. 

How can I structure my business to reduce exposure to lawsuits?  

Because of the number of mortgages limiting my ability to continue to borrow funds, how can I structure the business so I am able to obtain financing for other purchases?. 

In addition, I am also looking for a good insurance company to purchase an umbrella policy. My current provider excluded some of the rental units in my portfolio.

Thank you in advance. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Insurance is the first step.

As to more funding, look for private funds or portfolio lenders.
