LLC for funding, 2nd home loan STR investment

Patrick Forelli
Posted

I'm looking to purchase an airbnb with a 2nd home loan. I have enough funds for a down payment and to furnish it, but funds are a little tight.  I understand an LLC cannot be on the title because that would violate my mortgage, but I am interested in establishing an LLC for liability reasons and to leverage business credit. I see business credit cards such as with US Bank offer 18 months 0 % APR.

I have enough funds in reserve to furnish and cover costs on my own, but I figured it would be valuable to have a 10-15 k cushion while building up business credit for future investments down the line.

Is it feasible/ legal to buy the property with a 2nd home loan, occupy the residence for 14 days, create an LLC management company to manage my property on airbnb, and leverage 15k in 0 % interest through business credit cards. Would there be restrictions on how I use these cards? Would leveraging the business cards in the management company's name be ok to furnish the property?

Would love to know what people think.

LLC and Investment don't mix with second home loan. No go.
